S-Control and current object ID?
Hi. I'm new to Salesforce and am trying to develop an S-Control that will be added to detail pages - i.e. account, contact and case detail pages. I would like to pass the ID of the currently-viewed object (the current Contact ID, Case ID or Account ID) to a Flash file. Is there a merge field, or some other way, to embed the current object ID in the S-Control's HTML without knowing in advance whether the object is a Contact, Case or Account?
Thanks
var objectId = '';
if ('{!Contact.Id}'!='')
objectId = '{!Contact.Id}';
else if ('{!Account.Id}'!='')
objectId = '{!Account.Id}';
else if ('{!Case.Id}'!='')
objectId = '{!Case.Id}';
And then use the objectId variable from that point forward. I hope you're not doing anything too deep though, because querying this stuff will get a little messy if you're trying to do it generically.
