 Using WAZE navigation in PHPRunner

Hi all,
I have a database with customer addresses.

I have the corresponding coordinates (latitude and longitude) in fields 'latitude' en 'longitude'.
I made a button on the view page of the customer.

By clicking on that button the user can start up WAZE navigation.
I now need to bring the values of these 2 fields into a link address to a website (location.href).
A fixed link looks like "https://www.waze.com/ul?ll=52.37461670%2C4.90419388&navigate=yes&zoom=17";

If I put that into the 'Client Before' part of the button it goed straight to that address. So that works!
But now I need the values from 'latitude' and 'longitude' from the record 'Naam' in the link.

How do I do that?

I changed the opening post a little bit so you understand what I need.

This is what I did so far:
client-after

function On(result, ctrl) {

var latitude = result['latitude'];

var longitude = result['longitude'];

window.location.href = 'https://www.waze.com/ul?ll='; + latitude + '%2C' + longitude + '&navigate=yes&zoom=17';

}


server

function On($params, $result) {

global $dal;

$record = $button->getCurrentRecord();

$result = [

'latitude' => $record['latitude'],

'longitude' => $record['longitude']

];



return $result;

}


But it doesn't work

What am I missing??

I think you're trying to do it the hard way.
Why not add the link as a calculated field, eg. add this to your SQL query at the end of the SELECT statement :-
concat("https://www.waze.com/ul?ll=",latitude,"%2C",longitude,"&navigate=yes&zoom=17";) AS navigate
Then you can just use the View As Hyperlink property on the calculated navigate field

What SELECT statement do you mean Kevin?

Great !!!
This exactly what I needed.
As Kevin said I made a 'link' of the navigate field and it works like a charm.
Thanks thanks thank guy's
