Linking an image object to a URL

Notes:

To link an image object to a URL that points to an image to include in an HTML report:

  1. In the Paper Design view or Paper Layout view, click the File Link tool in the tool palette

  2. Click and drag a rectangle.

  3. Double-click the file link object to display the Property Inspector.

  4. Under the File Link Boilerplate node:

Example 1: Image URL

http://www.oracle.com/images/logo.gif

Example 2: Image URL containing user parameter

http://&<P_SERVER_NAME>/images/logo.gif

where P_SERVER_NAME is a user parameter of type CHAR

At runtime, the end user can specify a value for the parameter (for example, P_SERVER_NAME=www.oracle.us.com for a dynamic URL link of http://www.oracle.us.com/images/logo.gif).

Example 3: URL to a file

FILE://c:/images/logo.gif

Note: If you click Browse to find a file, Oracle Reports automatically prepends FILE:// to the returned path.
