Dear Sir,
I have done it through the following way, though there is an error
which I will mention at the last.
My solution...
controller.xml
_____________________
<request-map uri="goToWebsite">
<security https="true" auth="true"/>
<event type="java"
path="com.akm.exim.events.CallExternalWebsite"
invoke="callExternalWebsite"/>
<response name="success" type="url-redirect" value="DomCustomerList"/>
<response name="error" type="view" value="errorPage"/>
</request-map>
_____________________
CallExternalWebsite java file
----------------------------------
public class CallExternalWebsite {
public static final String module = CallExternalWebsite.class.getName();
public static String callExternalWebsite(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) {
//Delegator delegator = (Delegator) request.getAttribute("delegator");
//LocalDispatcher dispatcher = (LocalDispatcher)
request.getAttribute("dispatcher");
//GenericValue userLogin = (GenericValue)
request.getSession().getAttribute("userLogin");
//Map<String, Object> result = ServiceUtil.returnSuccess();
Map<String, Object> parameters = UtilHttp.getParameterMap(request); //
To get parameters from ftl file
String url = parameters.get("customerWebsite").toString().trim();
String os = System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase();
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
Debug.logInfo("=======url=========", url);
try {
if (os.indexOf( "win" ) >= 0) {
// this doesn't support showing urls in the form of "page.html#nameLink"
rt.exec( "rundll32 url.dll, FileProtocolHandler " + url);
} else if (os.indexOf( "mac" ) >= 0) {
rt.exec( "open " + url);
} else if (os.indexOf( "nix") >=0 || os.indexOf( "nux") >=0) {
// Do a best guess on unix until we get a platform independent way
// Build a list of browsers to try, in this order.
String[] browsers = {"epiphany", "firefox", "mozilla", "konqueror",
"netscape","opera","links","lynx"};
// Build a command string which looks like "browser1 "url" ||
browser2 "url" ||..."
StringBuffer cmd = new StringBuffer();
for (int i=0; i<browsers.length; i++)
cmd.append( (i==0 ? "" : " || " ) + browsers[i] +" \"" +
url + "\" ");
rt.exec(new String[] { "sh", "-c", cmd.toString() });
} else {
request.setAttribute("_EVENT_MESSAGE_", url);
}
}
catch (Exception e) {
String errMsg = "Unable to open url." + e.toString();
request.setAttribute("_ERROR_MESSAGE_", errMsg);
return "error";
}
//request.setAttribute("_EVENT_MESSAGE_", url);
return "success";
}
}
