Opening sales order in new browser window

Question

hi experts,
i have ALV table in which one of the columns is sales order number. I made the column as hyperlink so that user can click on it. when the user clicks on this i am calling an event handler method which is linked on_click event of the ALV interface controller . i am able to capture the sales order number in the method. Now i want to call va03 transaction for this sales order in a new browser window. we are going to integrate this application in portal. any ideas?. i heard something about the object based navigation. how to do this?
thanks

Hi Sudhakar,
Check out the below code to open a Transaction from WD in an external window and pass the value in that Transaction. I am passing the value here in the VF03 transaction's Billing document screen field .
  DATA: url TYPE string,
        host TYPE string,
        port TYPE string.
*Call below method to get host and port
  cl_http_server=>if_http_server~get_location(
     IMPORTING host = host
            port = port ).
  CONCATENATE host ':' port
  '/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui/?~transaction='
  '*VF03 VBRK-VBELN=123456' " 123456 is the value you are passing into the Billing document screen field of the    
   INTO url.                                      "VF03   transaction
*get the window manager as we are opening t code in external window
  DATA lo_window_manager TYPE REF TO if_wd_window_manager.
  DATA lo_api_component TYPE REF TO if_wd_component.
  DATA lo_window TYPE REF TO if_wd_window.
  lo_api_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
  lo_window_manager = lo_api_component->get_window_manager( ).
call the url which we created above
  lo_window_manager->create_external_window(
  EXPORTING
  url = url
  RECEIVING
  window = lo_window ).
  lo_window->open( ).
Hope it helps you...
