Component | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | Server | iOS SDK |
WebView | 1.3 | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ No | ❌ No | ✅ Yes |
Parameter | Description | Example | Flags |
---|---|---|---|

FormName | The Form containing the field to read, case sensitive | ||
FieldName | The field to read, case sensitive | ||

Note for Windows: For Windows this function is only supported in FileMaker Pro when using Internet Explorer as engine behind the Web Viewer, but not when Microsoft Edge/Chrome engine is used. But the functions should still work if with Web Viewers created via plugin using WebView.Create and WebView.CreateWithControl as those still use Internet Explorer.
