In the Design Studio I am trying to add a broser control to my RQ10 form that opens my separtate C# web applciation.
If I set src like this when adding this Browser element to the form:
BROWSER col="59" height="4" id="browser1" nbr="_l266" par="" row="3" src="some url" width="39"
it opens this application correctly based on the value set to src.

My problem is that I want to add the paramter to this url (the RQ number).
So in method FORM_OnAfterDataInit() I added following code:
var browserLoc=lawForm.getFormElement("browser1",3);
browserLoc.src="http:\\\\someMachineName\\someApplicationName\\Default.aspx?RQ=12345";
alert(browserLoc.src);//

This alert shows me that src is set correctly but browser control does not load the application that I set to src that way.
Can I somehow reload/repaint/refresh this control?
I know how to open this in a separate window but I would really prefer to keep user on the same page and just refresh this browser controller.

Here's a couple of examples of calling a saved C program as well as how to open a URL (in this case a file folder). // comment tags added so the JavaScript displays correctly.

//s = "/cgi-lawson/createfolder.exe?//fileserver1/lawson/attachments/" + lawForm.getFormValue("text4").replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,"");
//var oResponse=portalWnd.httpRequest(s)

//var load = window.open('file://fileserver1/lawson/attachments/' + lawForm.getFormValue("text4").replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,""),'','scrollbars=no,menubar=yes,height=600,width=600,resizable=yes,toolbar=yes,location=yes,status=yes')

Thank  you for you response. I would really prefer not to open a new brower window but use this BROWSER control that is provided by Design Studio and that I just embeded in the RQ10 form. It looks like it is part of the form. I really wonder if it is possible to refresh it somehow after the src is reset.

Found the solution in case somebody will want to implement it this way.
For some reason setting the src this way is working:
var elem=document.getElementById("_l266");
elem.src="http:\\\\somedomain\\FileUpload\\Default.aspx?RQ=12345";
