Change Web launch properties of a database

Change Web launch properties of a database

Have you ever wanted to change a databases' Web launch properties from a browser or just from a LotusScript agent?

Well here is an easy to use LotusScript agent that allows you to do this.

You would call this agent via a link in your web page or a button. You could also create an agent to run on the last day of the month at mid night to change the web launch page to an appropriate page for the new month.

This is a simple script and can be modified to allow the Web user to change the Web launch option to any page that is in the database by passing in a query string.

For exapmple:
http://www.mysite.com/db.nsf/weblaunch?openagent&page=hello 


Dim session As New NotesSession
 Dim db As NotesDatabase
 Dim docIcon As NotesDocument
 Dim path As Variant
 
 Set db = session.CurrentDatabase
 Set docIcon = db.GetDocumentByID
("FFFF0010")
 
 docIcon.~$DefaultWebLaunchPage
 = "construction.html"
 docIcon.~$Flags = docIcon.~
$Flags(0) & "F"
 Call docIcon.Save(True, False) 
 path = Evaluate(|@LowerCase
("/"+@ReplaceSubstring(@Subset
(@DbName;-1);"";"/"))|,docIcon)
 Print"["+path(0) + "/mypage?openpage]"
end sub
