Creating bookmarks conditionally

Thu, 23 Jan 2014 21:22:12 GMT

Hi,

I need help in creating a conditional bookmark. The bookmark should be created only if the condition is satisfied. The production server does not allow macros so need to do this with triggers.

I tried creating an action to Create a bookmark; with the bookmark ID as

=if(<Condition>,1)

Bookmark name as

=if(<Condition>,<Desc>)

This seemed to work in the desktop view but not on the web view mode.

thanks!

If you already know the requirement, then create the Document bookmarks.

If you need to create the Server Bookmarks, you have turn on the Allow creation of Server Object on the QEMC task.

The bookmarks are more of a way to create a trackable history. Something like recreating the history option we have on our browsers. So that users can go back in time and view other links.

So I do not the the conditions upfront.

Hi Soni, If you need to create the BookMarks dynamically based the values from somewhere.

Create the Macro that creates the bookmarks dynamically.
