Managing an FVTerm Child iFrame in Javascript

For Block Mode hosts Only (3270/5250)

 

Use this call to read the value of an entry field at the specified row and column.  Value will have blanks trimmed.

 

Parameter

Description

row

Row that the field is located on. 1=first row

column

Column for the first character of the field. 1=first column

 

Return Value

Description

String

Contents of the field at row, column with blanks trimmed so that an empty field will be an empty string (but not null)

 

Note:

 

When using the msgAPI mode, you will need to add an await to any request, as the GetField must be executed within the FVTerm iFrame using messaging, and with the msgAPI mode this function returns a Promise not the actual text!
