ContextOpen (Function)

In french: ContexteOuvre

Opens a new page context without returning the information to the browser. This function is used to pass parameters to one of the frameset pages.

If a context with the same name is already opened, this one is automatically destroyed (the closing code of the page is run) and opened.

Versions 24 and later

This function is now available in Ajax mode.

New in version 24

This function is now available in Ajax mode.

Example

// Open the context of PAGE_Page4
ContextOpen(PAGE_Page4)

Syntax

ContextOpen(<Page> [, <Parameter 1> [... [, <Parameter N>]]])

<Page>: Page name

Name of the page whose context must be opened. If this parameter is equal to an empty string (""), the name of the page corresponds to the page to which the current process belongs.

<Parameter 1>: Type of value sent to the page (optional)

Parameters expected by the opening process of the page to display. These parameters are passed by reference and are considered as global variables to the page.

<Parameter N>: Type of value sent to the page (optional)

Parameters expected by the opening process of the page to display. These parameters are passed by reference and are considered as global variables to the page.

Remarks

ContextOpen, PageDisplay and PageRefresh

ContextOpen has the same effect as PageDisplay but it does not send the page back to the browser. To send the page back to the browser, use PageRefresh.

Passing parameters to ContextOpen

When opening a frameset whose one or more pages expect parameters, you must (before displaying the frameset) open the context of the frameset pages by specifying the parameters expected by these pages.

Versions 20 and later
