Nested substitution methods

Question

Hello ,
Does anybody know what the problem might be:
This code is used to refresh a variable
--When i run this :
select
'<%=odiRef.getFlexFieldValue("1010", "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )%>' || ' - ' ||
'<%=odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" )%>'
from dual
--it works fine and the variable gets the value: [email protected] - 1010
--but when I run :
select
'<%=odiRef.getFlexFieldValue("odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" )", "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )%>'
from dual
-- i get :
BeanShell script error: Parse error at line 2, column 10. Encountered: ( BSF info: user_info at line: 0 column: columnNo
out.print("select \n'") ;
out.print(odiRef.getFlexFieldValue("odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" )", "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )) ;
out.print("' \nfrom dual") ;
****** ORIGINAL TEXT ******
select
'<%=odiRef.getFlexFieldValue("odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" )", "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )%>'
from dual
--or when I run:
select
'<%=odiRef.getFlexFieldValue(odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" ), "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )%>'
from dual
--I get:
The application script threw an exception: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "1010" BSF info: user_info at line: 0 column: columnNo
out.print("select \n'") ;
out.print(odiRef.getFlexFieldValue(odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" ), "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )) ;
out.print("' \nfrom dual") ;
****** ORIGINAL TEXT ******
select
'<%=odiRef.getFlexFieldValue(odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" ), "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )%>'
from dual
Does anybody know what is the correct syntax to use ?
Thanks

Hello Gurusank,
Thanks for your reply.
What i'm tring to do is to send an email to the user that executs a scenario.
To do that I have created a flexfield for the object user. For each user this flexfields holds the user email.
First i tried :
*{color:#99cc00}&lt;%=odiRef.getFlexFieldValue("1010", "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )%&gt;{color}*
for user ID "1010" and it worked fine (I get the correct email)
the i tried:
*{color:#99cc00}&lt;%=odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" )%&gt;{color}*
This also works fine and return 1010 (which is the object ID of the current user)
But i wasnt able to combine the expressions
{color:#ff0000}*&lt;%=odiRef.getFlexFieldValue("odiRef.getUser( "I_USER" )", "300" , "USER_EMAIL" )%&gt;*{color}
Hope it helps to undestand my question
