All:

I have done a Google search and gone through many of the articles on this site, but I cant seem to find an example of an AGS call from Javascript code.

I need a simple Javascript function that makes an AGS (Inquire) call to Lawson 8.0.3 and returns the string data returned from the AGS call.

I will be using this in a custom HTML form.

Thanks!

Here are a couple examples, not specific to your requirements, but should be enough to get you started:

John: I tried your suggestion and built a function using the code you pointed out. It seems to be working but I am getting this response from the POST: Internal Server Error Cannot read script output pipe. I am getting prompted to enter my user id and password, so this cant be authentication, right?  

I did take the AGS call string from my code (During debug) and ran it in my browser from the URL and it worked fine there?

Any thoughts?

I got it to work! I changed my AGS call string from this: /cgi-lawson/ags.exe? TO: /servlet/ags?

Ok now I am having an issue with the AGS call from my JS function. The code works fine but it seems to be caching the data somewhere? I am using an XML file to provide the values for the AGS call to AP20.7. Each time I change the XML values and run the JS function again it seems to be ignoring the change in the XML values? Does anyone know how I can fix this? Has anyone else run into this problem? TIA!
