hoPrompt | Handle of prompt object being invoked |
Procedure Prompt_Callback Handle hoPrompt
When prompt list objects (cWebPromptList) are invoked, they send a callback message to their invoking object. This message, Prompt_Callback, is passed the object handle of the prompt object. This message must be understood by the invoking object. This can be used to customize the prompt object for the particular invoking object. This enables you to use a single prompt list for multiple purposes. Normally, this message sets properties in the cWebPromptList object.

Notice that Prompt_Callback WebSets psPromptUpdateCallback by name. This must be a WebSet and not a Set and the name must be a string and not the message name or handle. This name must be correct and it must point to a method in this object that is web-published (e.g. WebPublishProcedure).
This update callback is called when the prompt selection is complete. It is passed the prompt object handle, which you can use to get whatever information you need about the selection.
