I have a very simple html page with forms, when i fill in a few fields and click submit, it invokes a web service on my broker. I see the http request come in.
I have a following compute node that only does copy entire message and then a httpreply node.
I am trying to get the http response in the same browser where i submitted the request.
i eventually want to get a http request in, use the form data to form a response and then reply back on the same browser screen.
this link seems a little confusing

If you design a message flow that includes both an HTTPInput and an HTTPReply node, the identifier value is set into the local environment by the HTTPInput node, but the HTTPReply node does not use it. Therefore, if your message flow includes both HTTP nodes and a Compute node in the same flow, you do not have to include the local environment tree when you specify which components of the message tree are copied from input message to output message by the Compute node (the Compute mode property) |
if it does not look for the request identifier in the local environment variable, should i pass it along some other way?
currently the response is coming back from the flow as a file for me to open in windows a pop comes up asking me to open the file. i can then open in IE and i see the source to be a html block but i am trying to get this to show up on the same screen where i submitted the request.

| it says when i use httpinput, compute and http reply all in the same flow i cannot change the incoming data? |
I don't see anything on that page that says that. Please fix up your broken link and then quote the piece of text that you are referring to. |

No you don't.
I'm with @timber - I don't see anything on that page that says what you seem to think it's saying.

Then this whole business with the request identifier is a red herring - the flow has correctly identified your session using the identifier and sent the output to you. If it's not being rendered as a page by IE but presented as a file then something in the response you're sending is making IE behave like that.

It's happened to us all at one time or another.
