Description: Opens the URL or web page.
Syntax:
Tcl: GOTODAQ URL=http://URL^target=name^replace=option^style=option^settings=option
JScript: GOTODAQ("URL=http://URL^target=name^replace=option^style=option^settings=option");
VB Script: GOTODAQ "URL=http://URL^target=name^replace=option^style=option^settings=option"
Arguments: URL or Web page address and options to adjust appearance of browser. (NO BLANK SPACES)
Returns: none
See Also: GOTODAQ URL=vdo:, GOTODAQ URL=webctrl:, <GOTO>URL=daq:
Changes display to a new HTML or other Web Page. If ^target is specified, opens in a new Web Browser pop-up window. If named target is already open, then new URL is opened in existing target window. Will open an IE browser regardless of default browser on PC (always opens Internet Explorer). IE 6.0, 7.0, or later must be installed on client PC. This is supported by Browser based clients (VIEW) and the local ViewDAQ. In ViewDAQ, this will open VIEW in a web browser. Project and Node must be specified if new target window named.
The delimiter is the carrot ^ typed by pressing Shift 6.
URL
Also known as a web address. Can be a URL, IP Address, name in
Hosts file or Network name. Can include options associated
with the URL including ASP options and WebAccess options.
example: GOTO URL=http://67.94.27.201
Target Name defines
a Target window name with feature options specified.
Can be any name. Optional, if no name specified, will open a
new window popup. If a window with same name is already open, loads
URL document into the named window. Using a target window name
allows use of CLOSEURL command. The CLOSEURL command
requires a target window name. No target name is equivalent to
_blank and will open new window that cannot be closed using
CLOSEURL command. The default window names used by HTML code are
not supported (_blank, _parent, _search, _self, _top, _media). NO
BLANK SPACES.
Syntax: target=name
example: GOTO URL=http://67.94.27.201^target=pop
replace Options are (yes=1 no=0).
Replace History Entry. When the URL is loaded into same window,
this BOOLEAN parameter specifies whether the URL creates a new
entry or replaces current entry in the windows history list.
Optional. NO BLANK SPACES. Boolean values accepted ( 0 1
yes no ).
Syntax: replace=Boolean
example: GOTO URL=http://67.94.27.201^target=pop^replace=1
style
Options 0,1,2. Window Title Bar options. Similar to Display
Groups in ViewDAQ.
(0 = Overlapped Window with Title, 1= Popup with Title,
2 =Popup without Title) . The Popup windows do not have Minimize,
Maximize or Close controls preventing user from easily closing, the
window. NO BLANK SPACES. Style is a number between 0 and 2.
Syntax: style=number
example: GOTO URL=http://64.55.156.4^target=pop^style=2
These settings used to control window size and position. They are similar to replace and style above. Each setting option is delimited with the carrot ^ (typed shift 6). NO BLANK SPACES.
fullscreen
Display Browser in full-screen mode. The default
is no. Use full-screen mode carefully because this mode
hides the browser's title bar and menus. You should always provide
a button or other clue to help the user close the window. ALT+F4
closes the new window. Boolean values accepted ( 0 1 yes
no ).
Syntax: fullscreen=Boolean
example: GOTO
URL=http://64.55.156.4^target=pop^fullscreen=yes
height Height of the
browser window, in pixels. The minimum value is 100.
Syntax: height=number
example: GOTO
URL=http://64.55.156.4^target=pop^height=200^width=400
left
Left position of the browser window, in pixels. The value is
relative to the upper -left corner of screen.

URL=http://64.55.156.4^target=pop^height=200^width=400^left=20
location
Display the address bar in web browser (URL input
field). Default value is yes. Boolean values accepted
( 0 1 yes no ).
Syntax: location=Boolean
example: GOTO
URL=http://67.94.27.201^target=pop^location=no
We now allow a web page to be opened without the address bar in IE 7 when it is invoked by using “<goto>url=…..^target=???^location=0”.
