Scott,
I was able to get the request tool to extract the parameters and store
the data in the session tool.
I used one template to submit the form data, and then used
<form method="post" action="$link.setPage("TestPullResult.vm")">
to direct the flow to a template which called the request pull tool
method to extract the data:
$requestool.getData()
This was done without any screens or actions.
One final question, is there any way to invoke the requestool.get() when
the form is submitted ? This would eliminate the requirement for a
second template.
Would something like this work ?
<form method="post"
action=$link.setPage("TestPullResult.vm").setAction("$requestool.getData()")">
I don't see anything in DynamicURI that handles this. Couching the call
to the request tool as an action doesn't work (predictably).
Thanks again for the insight. Thanks to Slave also.
