Method Detail

getForwardURI

java.lang.String getForwardURI()

The URI to go.

If it starts with "http://" or "https://" the action will forward to the absolute URL in internet (since v4m1). Since 4.0.1 if it starts with "javascript:" the corresponding code will executed by the browser. Since 5.9 you should use IJavaScriptPostAction to execute JavaScript because IForwardAction with javascript: does not update the page before executing the JavaScript, but executes the JavaScript instead. If it returns null the forwarding is not done.

inNewWindow

boolean inNewWindow()
