Example: 

Let’s build and execute the “HREFDef” example.  

  • Create a Form Definition called “HREFDef.”
  • Drag a “BootstrapGrid, Label, Image, Hyperlink, and Submit” control onto the canvas and arrange them as shown below.  

 

  • Double-click the “HREF” widget to configure the “Settings” properties. Enter a name for the control, a name for the hyperlink, and a URL to navigate to. Select the checkbox to open the target in a new window. Check the “Hide” box to hide this widget at runtime. Click the Submit button. 

 

  • Select the “Styling” tab. Enter the style script and syntax for the CSS styles. Choose the classes to apply from the global drop-down list. Click the Save button. 

 

  • Double-click the “HREF” widget to set the “Other” properties. Enter the tooltip text. Click the Save button. 

 

  • Double-click the “HREF” widget to configure the “Globalize” properties. The application will alert you if there is nothing to globalize, as shown below. Otherwise, select a language from the drop-down list, then click the Translate button. Click the Save button. 

 

  • Save the Form Definition. Choose Actions > Create Form Instance. Generate a new Form Instance, then check the box to edit it.

 

  • The form appears as shown below. Click the hyperlink to go to the website, then click the Submit button to finish.  

 

  • Note: The Hyperlink widget can also be initialized using the jQuery expression, as shown below.
$("#href1").attr('href', "http://www.google.com");

 

  • Alternatively, use the UpdateVariable step to initialize the Urlpath (string) variable and employ the jQuery expression as demonstrated below.
e.URLpath = “http://www.google.com”
$("#href1").attr('href', variable.URLpath);
