<iframe id="cubeviewId" name="cubeviewIFrame" style="width:100%; height:100%;"></iframe>

<script type="text/javascript">

   // This function submits the login form and opens a CubeViewer
   function loadCubeview() {

      // Get a reference to the login form
      var loginForm = document.getElementById("loginInfoForm");

      var baseUrl = "http://localhost:9510/tm1web/UrlApi.jsp";

      var params = "#Action=Open&Type=CubeViewer&Cube=plan_BudgetPlan";

      loginForm.target = "cubeviewIFrame";
