$Web Screen

<section begin="desc" />Set 3270 to HTML mapping options<section end="desc" />

$Web_Screen sets the value of 3270-screen-to-HTML mapping options and/or returns the current value of these options.

Syntax

<section begin="syntax" /> %CURVAL = $Web_Screen( parameter, value ) <section end="syntax" />

$Web_Screen is a callable $function (see "Calling Sirius Mods $functions").

$Web_Screen accepts two arguments, the first one required, and it returns a string containing the previous setting of the indicated parameter, or it returns a null for any errors.

parameter	The name of a parameter that controls the conversion of 3270 screens to HTML. These are the same parameters that can be set via JANUS WEB SCREEN rules, as documented in .
value	The new value for the parameter. These are the same values that can be set via JANUS WEB SCREEN rules, as documented in .

If the parameter name is missing or invalid or the value is invalid, $Web_Screen returns a null string. If the value argument is missing, $Web_Screen returns the current value of the indicated parameter. In all other cases, $Web_Screen sets the value of parameter to value, and it returns value to indicate success. $Web_Screen only affects the settings for the current Janus Web Server Legacy session; it does not affect settings for other users or other sessions for the same user. It also does not affect the initial screen rules for subsequent Janus Web Legacy sessions.

* Set some function key values %JUNK = $Web_Screen('PF1', 'Help') %JUNK = $Web_Screen('PF3', 'Quit') %JUNK = $Web_Screen('PF7', 'Down') %JUNK = $Web_Screen('PF8', 'Up')

In the above example, the labels for function keys 1, 3 , 7, and 8 are set for subsequent 3270 screens. The current settings for other function keys are unaffected.

There are certain self-defining parameters for JANUS WEB SCREEN rules that don't have the format parameter and value but simply have a parameter name. Examples of this are CSSINSP, NOCSSINSP, LEGBL, and NOLEGBL. For these types of parameters, the parameter name is not required; if present, it must be the alternate value of that parameter:

%JUNK = $Web_Screen(, 'NOCSSINSP') %JUNK = $Web_Screen('LEGBL', 'LEGBL') %JUNK = $Web_Screen(, 'CSSTITLESPAN')

Also, for these types of parameters, the value returned by $Web_Screen will be one of the alternate values, so the following statement might set %JUNK to either CSSINSP or NOCSSINSP:

%JUNK = $Web_Screen('NOCSSINSP')

This statement would set %JUNK to either CSSTITLEDIV or CSSTITLESPAN, depending on the old setting of this parameter:

%JUNK = $Web_Screen(,'CSSTITLEDIV')
