I am trying to run an action sequence from a dashboard in Pentaho 5.2. I usually press button with js function window.open("path/name.xaction") which runs the action sequence and (logically) opens a window with Action succes message. But I want to run the action sequence without opening a new window and stay at the dashboard. I managed to run the action sequence and redirect the page to the dashboard again. It works, but it's not the nicest. I would like to run the action sequence in the background, it seems like a better idea.

How to run *.xaction file in the background from CDE? (Or how to run something in the background by using javascript?)

Try using Ajax call from the dashboard page and call the xaction file.!! It will run the xaction at the background without refreshing the page.
