I am working with a page in WebMatrix that takes data entry from a tech on a manufacturing line, and inserts 3 nearly identical records to a database. I need to, after each of the 3 record inserts, generate 9 barcode stickers. The barcode printing from a vbhtml page is working fine too.
This is my post code from the form that inserts all the records.
If IsPost And Validation.IsValid Then
If ModelState.IsValid Then
Dim a = 0
Dim blockNumber, blockSection As String
Dim i = Request("dropdownSection")
Do While a < i
Select Case a
Case = 0 'this would be the A section
blockNumber = Helpers.GetBlockNumber("1", Request("textWorkorder"),
Request("dropdownSheeter"), Request("dropdownMaterial"))
blockSection = "A"
db.Execute(strQuery, Request("textDate"), Request("dropdownSheeter"), Request("dropdownShift"), Request("dropdownEmployees"),
Request("textWorkorder"), blockNumber, blockSection,
Request("textComments"), Request("textFoilNum1"), Request("textFoilNum2"),
Request("textFoilNum3"), Request("dropdownPrintLine"), Request("dropdownMaterial"))
Case = 1 'this would be the B section
blockNumber = Helpers.GetBlockNumber("2", Request("textWorkorder"),
Request("dropdownSheeter"), Request("dropdownMaterial"))
blockSection = "B"
db.Execute(strQuery, Request("textDate"), Request("dropdownSheeter"), Request("dropdownShift"), Request("dropdownEmployees"),
Request("textWorkorder"), blockNumber, blockSection,
Request("textComments"), Request("textFoilNum1"), Request("textFoilNum2"),
Request("textFoilNum3"), Request("dropdownPrintLine"), Request("dropdownMaterial"))
Case = 2 'this would be the C section
blockNumber = Helpers.GetBlockNumber("3", Request("textWorkorder"),
Request("dropdownSheeter"), Request("dropdownMaterial"))
blockSection = "C"
db.Execute(strQuery, Request("textDate"), Request("dropdownSheeter"), Request("dropdownShift"), Request("dropdownEmployees"),
Request("textWorkorder"), blockNumber, blockSection,
Request("textComments"), Request("textFoilNum1"), Request("textFoilNum2"),
Request("textFoilNum3"), Request("dropdownPrintLine"), Request("dropdownMaterial"))
End Select
a = a + 1
Loop
End If
What I am trying to figure out is after each insert in the case statement, I need to call a jquery function that generates 3 of the 9 reports for each case.
function OpenReports(block)
{
var wo = $('#textWorkorder').val()
var url = '/Reports/NomexBlockLabel.vbhtml?id=' + wo + '&block=' + block
window.open(url, '_blank');
};
How can I call that OpenReports function from inside each case statement? Is that possible? Should I try and use VB to open the URLS to the reports?
Thanks!
