Hi Guys,

How to use search box (Text box) value into a Mega Query variable. I am trying to getting input from a text box on Mega EA website and use this value into a Mega Query.
But some reason it does not work. Is there anyone have any sample structure to do this. I will really appreciate for any help...

Thanks

Azim

Hi Wim,

Thanks for your reply and sharing the information. Yes, I also found using Javascript Search engine was much easier and flexible.

Btw, just curious which search engine you were using. I have tried Tipue Search.

Have a nice day.

Hi,

You can also include a javascript search engine, free available on the internet.

You only will have to implement it in your website template, like adding an index page.

I used it for multiple customers, works like a charm, and faster then going for server side scripting which connect to mega.

grtz,

Wim

Ok this is my recommendation

1. Create your own website in any server side scripting language

2. connect this site using Mega DLL Component to a mega repository

3. get search value and send this value to mega repository by using an API method oRoot.getSelection("Select [MegaObjectType] where Name=""") etc

You cannot use Mega Generated Static Website to run a search query on mega repository.

Hi Imran,

Thanks for your reply.
It's can be any where in EA website. I need to get the parameter value from users.
For example, when I execute this query in Mega query, it's asking for user input. (Select [Business Process] Where [Owner Library] &name)

On the website I have create a input text box (html). I need to get user input from that text box and execte the query in backend.

I have attached two screenshot for you 🙂

Thanks a lot for your help.

EA Website, is it a standard website generated by mega or are you talking about Mega Web Anywhere? If it's the first you cannot run mega search queries.
