CanNavigate Method

The CanNavigate method determines whether or not the user can navigate a control. It returns one of the following values:

• true. The user can navigate the control.

• false. The user cannot navigate the control.

It uses the following syntax:

CanNavigate(activeControl.GetFieldName())

For example, the following code uses the CanNavigate method to set up a variable named canNavigate:

var controlSet = this.GetPM().Get("GetControls");
for(var control in controlSet){
  if(controlSet.hasOwnProperty(control)){   var canNavigate = 
this.GetPM().ExecuteMethod("CanNavigate", controlSet[
   control ].GetName());
  }
}

The following example identifies the controls in a set of controls that reside in an applet proxy. You can then use the value that CanNavigate returns to determine whether or not Siebel Open UI can render a control as a link:

var controlSet = this.GetPM().Get("GetControls");
for(var control in controlSet){
  if(controlSet.hasOwnProperty(control)){
   var canNavigate = this.GetPM().ExecuteMethod("CanNavigate", controlSet[
   control ].GetName());
  }
}
