How to imitate a spinner control in the web application designer

43 Views

I have a requirement to create a spinner control for users to be able to choose a month by in a BEx web application. Basically there should be a button on the left that changes the filter to the next lower month/year, a box that shows the currently filtered month/year, and then another button on the right that changes the filter to the next higher month year. Something like this:

- JULY 2009 +

Where clicking on the - will change the filter to JUNE 2009, clicking it again will change it to MAY 2009 and so on.

Has anybody done this before or have an idea on how to accomplish it?

I'm using the 7.0 BEx tools and the web app has one analysis item that needs to be controlled by this spinner, and 3 other charts that are NOT controlled by it.

Thank you for your help and ideas!
