Workflow with reference to infopath document (web style) in link

[jon]

I'm working on a workflow that sends an email notification on my MOSS form
library.

In the email, I want to link to the form that generated the alert
(hyperlink). I've built it like this:

https://site/sitedirectory/site/library/[%Library:Name%].xml

This works well, but I'm wondering if there's a way to force this link to
open the browser version of the template as opposed to attempting to download
the file and open it in InfoPath?

(the library and form are already properly configured to open the form by
default in the browser...it just appears that linking to it in this manner
doesn't work as I expected)

You can reference IPFS directly and pass it variables such as the specific
template and to force it to use the browser.

Clay, can you elaborate on that a bit? I'm not sure what you mean by
"reference IPFS directly"

Clay, I'm assuming you're referring to something like:

http://ServerName/sites/SiteCollect...ocation=~sitecollection/FormLibrary/Form1.xml

Correct?

Sure.
You can pass parameters to IPFS directly.

typical syntax would b
http://server/site/_layouts/formser...rver/site/library/template.xsn&OpenIn=Browser

This would also be a way to do some of your hyperlink automation too.
I can show you an example if you want.

Excellent. Thanks for the help Clay!
