By the way, can I combine EPCF inside a DynPro iView?

Hello Anilkumar,

Well, I tried it, it doesn't work, I receive "404 not found" when I try this...

You can pass the function to an IframeUI which alows you to run JavaScript like window.print(). I don't know the extend of the script that can be run through the IFrame.

Just as a matter of curiosity would like to know why do you want to embed a JavaScript in webDynpro

I would like to create a link that by pressing it opens new mail message.

In JavaScript it's easy: simply set <mailto:..> at the link. Can you offer me such an easy solution in DynPro?

Use Link2Url UI control element, here you can define URLs with any protocol browser understand (including mailto:)

This (protocol javascript:) probably works in current releases but in future releases it will be disabled by default for security reasons.

The set of allowed URL protocols will then be configurable in the J2EE server.
