BlueZone scripts can accept variables which can be passed to BlueZone through object tag parameters. Up to nine (9) variables
per BlueZone session can be specified starting with Var1 and ending with Var9. These variables can be inserted into the object tag dynamically based on the user’s login information. Technologies such
as Active Server Pages (ASP) and Java Server Pages (JSP) can be used to create HTML pages with dynamic content.
Configuration method: Manual configuration
Feature scope: Site-level feature
Scope
The following exercise shows you how to record a BlueZone script that can be used to automatically log a user in to a host
by using two variables: one for user name and one for password.
In the following exercise, file references are for BlueZone Mainframe. If you are using BlueZone iSeries or BlueZone VT, substitute
the appropriate file names and locations.
The steps involved are:
|
• |
Record the BlueZone login script |
|
• |
Configure BlueZone to automatically play the script |
|
• |
Use BlueZone Script Editor to insert variables into your script |
|
• |
Add variables to the BlueZone object tag |
|
• |
Make the script available to your users |
It is the responsibility of the reader to provide an Active Server Page script or some other method that will provide the
dynamic interface to the web page that contains the BlueZone object tag.
Requirements
|
