Field Display Type
IMAGE
To Display images
This display type accepts three forms of data as its argument:
1) An image path, i.e. c:\images\quote.gif
2) An IM.DOCUMENT.IMAGE reference, i.e. IM0312300089
3) A key to a table, i.e. 100057
Using Images with the Image Management module
Setting the display type of an item to IMAGE allows direct interaction between Browser, ENQUIRY and Image Management. There are two uses of the image management module with browser and ENQUIRY.
Specifying a key to IM.DOCUMENT.IMAGEwhen the display type is IMAGE will include the image in that column of the ENQUIRY.
More flexible is the ability to define the display type of IMAGE for any data – the cross reference tables in the IM module are used to attempt to retrieve an image – where multiple images are found, only the first is shown. E.g. simply use an ENQUIRY field of customer number and set the display type to be IMAGE – the ENQUIRY processing will attempt to find any images for that customer number.
In order for the images to be correctly displayed in the browser, it is vital that the full path specified is accessible by the client PC, or where a relative path is used, that the path is accessible from the web server.
Using Images to improve ENQUIRY appearance
Here, an ENQUIRY has been modified to show an icon in place of text for the Info column. Here, a relative path is created as a text manipulation, and the final ENQUIRY field set to a display type of IMAGE, e.g. a relative path used could be:
plaf/tec/warning.gif
As for image management images being used in ENQUIRY, the relative path must be accessible to the web server. If in doubt, experiment with static html pages first
