Hello UCSC team, We have a CNV (copy number variation) web application here at Children's Hospital where we can dynamically build .bed files based on the current query parameters. We would like to link to your browser and display bed files, however we would like these files to be dynamically generated. We see you have a way to link to static bed file with the URL: http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTracks? org=human&chr1:103898845-103923670&hgt.customText=http://whatever/ file.bed". I would like our files to be built dynamically, so that we only build them if requested. I tried doing this by setting the hgt.customText= our URL with a session id along with a parameter that lets the application know to send back a response that contains information in bed file format.
For instance: hgt.customText=http://genometest.chop.edu/cnv_darcy/ results.jsp;jsessionid=8736C9A4B6C643E077735322DA8D2E60? bedfile=tester.bed. I am never getting a request from the UCSC browser, which leads me to believe this may not be possible. I have tested the link I set in hgt.customText and it is valid. The UCSC browser does show data, but default data for the position I set in the URL. Is what I am trying to do possible? Thanks so much, Monica _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
