Call a URL which is a Javascript

[Former Member]

Hi All.

I know we CANNOT call javascript in Web dynpro abap.

I also know we can call a URL via calling external window and passing the URL.

We needed a functionality which requires a small piece of javascript code to be executed on click of any button. I have placed a javascript code in the portal server.

I was wondering if there could be a way to call a URL WITHOUT the external window - this would mean that I call my javascript URL whenever I want.

Thanks in adv for your patience.

No. This doesn't really make sense. You can call URL via the linkToURL, Exit Plug or the open External Window - but all of these approaches are designed to support navigation not find a hack to execute JavaScript.
