Cancel Process URL for an Editable Form Page

You can specify a URL to process if the user cancels out of a form.

The cancelProcessURL parameter specifies the name of the JSP to call during cancel processing of the web form in edit mode.

Examples to invoke the emxForm.jsp with a cancelProcessURL:


  1. Set the href of any command object using macros where appropriate: 
    ${COMMON_DIR}/emxForm.jsp?mode=Edit&form=<form_name>
&cancelProcessURL=${SUITE_DIR}/emxCustomCancelProcess.jsp

    or

  2. Invoke emxForm.jsp with custom JSP pages using the relative path (macros are not supported): 
    ../common/emxForm.jsp?mode=Edit&form=<form_name>
&cancelProcessURL=../<Application Directory>/emxCustomCancelProcess.jsp

If you specify both a cancelProcessURL and cancelProcessJPO, the cancelProcessURL executes first followed by the cancelProcessJPO.

The cancel process JSP has these input parameters:


  • The request parameters available for the emxForm.jsp, for example, objectId, relId, timeStamp, form, portalMode, suiteKey, etc.
  • The request parameter timeStamp gets the form field information stored in the form bean as a map.
  • To update or interact with any objects, obtain the context from the request using this code:
context = (matrix.db.Context)request.getAttribute("context");
