Access forms 11g port number

anirbmuk-OracleMay 3 2013 — edited May 10 2013
Hi,

Is there any way of getting the forms port number inside forms? I am running Forms 11.1.2.1.

Use case: The forms need to open up a help page in a new browser window. In my case, the forms are embedded inside an ADF page, which is running on a different port. By default, WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT takes the port number of the hosting page. However, all the help files are located in a folder inside the forms server.

One way is to put the forms URL as a parameter inside the env file and then access the same through forms, but that becomes a matter of user configuration. If possible I would like to use an out-of-the-box solution.

Regards,
Anirban
