Setting value for a variable inside javascript

Anand6666 · Posted 04-20-2015 11:13 AM

Hi,

I have been writing a report in SAS using HTML frontend.

1) I am calling a Stored procedure from another stored procedure and basically want the value of a variable defined in the first STP to be available in the called STP.

I tried declaring the variable as GLOBAL but I am unable to get the value to the second STP.

2) How to set the value of a macro variable inside javascript. when I try to do so, it throws javascript error.

Code:

%global case;
%let case=1;

data _null;
file _webout;
input;
line=resolve(_infile_);
put line;
cards4;

function getvalues()
{
var case=2
alert("&case");
}

</script></head>

<body onload="getvalues()"><h1 align="center" >Report</h1>
<form name="ADD_SHARE" method="POST" action="http://****/SASStoredProcess/do">
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="_PROGRAM" ID="_PROGRAM" VALUE="">
<br><br><table>
<tr><td> Enter NAME</td><td>
<input type="text" name="name"><BR> </td> </tr>
<tr></tr>

<table>
</table>
    </td>
   </tr>

   <tr>
    <td><font size="1" face="Verdana"><CENTER>
    <input type="button" value="GENERATE" name="btn_update" id="GENERATE" onclick="performAction(this)" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: 700"></font>';

    </td>
   </tr>
</table>
</form>
</body></html>
;;;;
run;

Specify the variable that the second procedure wants on the html form that is generating the URL to call it.

You could make it hidden (like the _PROGRAM variable) or not depending on how you want your form to work.
