Showing data from an External URL on the Lead detail page

Hi All,

 

I wish to show data from an external site on the Lead detail page. I have managed to create a custom link and  associate it to an S-Control which fetches the data from the URL. I have added this link on the Page layout for Lead detail, but it shows the data on a different page.

 

Is there any way to show it on the same page as that of the Lead detail? Any help in this matter will be highly appreciated.

 

TIA,

- Shashank

Hi,

 

I think you can achieve this through inline s-control.

 

Thanks,

AJ

AJ,

 

Thanks for the prompt response.

 

How do I  create an inline S-Control? Is there an equivalent inline Visualforce page?

Shashan,

 

Go to page Layout of the object.

Click the visual force / S-control button in the page layout.

It list all the available visual force / scontrol.

Drag and drop it in the page layout.

Now in view mode of the record the particular s-control/vf would be displayed in the same page.

 

Thanks,

AJ
