MVC BSP input field - Demonstrate how to retrieve a value entered into text input field









Below is the basic code for allowing users to input text onto a html page and retrieve what they have entered using standard BSP and HTML techniques. 

Display input field and retrieve value entered using standard bSP and HTML technique

Layout
------
The code below is pure HTML and not HTMLB so you will need to remove the
htmlb code that SAP insert automatically.

<html>
<page>
<FORM NAME="formlist">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
    <td align="RIGHT">
        <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="gd_keywords" VALUE="gd_keywords" size=60>
        <INPUT type="submit" name="OnInputProcessing(search)">
    </td>
</tr></table>
</FORM>
</page>
</html>

OnInputProcessing
-----------------
case event_id.   "declared in page attributes as type STRING
  when 'search'.
*   Sets value of parameter ready for next screen
*   gd_keywords needs to declared as type STRING within page attributes
    navigation->set_parameter( name  = 'gd_keywords' ).

*   If you create page 'courses.htm' with a field called keywords within
*   page attributes then the value entered in this page will be passed
*   through. May need to tick the auto option
    navigation->goto_page('courses.htm').
endcase.
