I've created a printer friendly IR Apex report, page 25, that I'd like to reuse (same query, same report) for two different pages, 7 & 8. On page 7, the value of the variable comes from a query, is assigned to an item and is passed to the printer friendly report. I used 'f?=123:25:SESSION::NO::P25_STUDENTID:&P7_USERID.'....as my syntax. I verified that the variable is correct and being passed correctly by displaying the variable on the first page and on the printer friendly report. It does.
On page 8, the item comes from the session. I created an item, P8_STUDENTID, it's source is the user in the session and it displays on the screen so I know that value is in that item. So thinking this was going to be easy, I used the same syntax for page 8, copy and pasted the javascript behind the button, changing the variables slightly 'f?=123:25:SESSION::NO::P25_STUDENTID:&P8_STUDENTID.' Nope. The value is not showing when you hoover over the button nor is it displaying on page 25. Left that URL target in the 'Action When Button Clicked' and figured I'd try using a branch that is associated with the same button. Branch to page 25, set item P25_STUDENTID with these values &P8_STUDENTID.
Still nothing. Can someone please give me some guidance. I think it has to be something simple.
