Invoke a hyperlink from Mainframe

Post by mfdeveloper » Fri Oct 04, 2013 12:16 pm

Hello, I need to create a mainframe application such that we can navigate to weblink from mainframe.

Is it possible to do by using anything like cobol/CICS/MFS or any other technique?

I don't think that it's doable in Mainframes. There are some emulators which provide "hot-spots" but they can not be termed as hyper-links.
