button token to control search for a panel

Hi i have a panel whose search i am trying to control from button which sets a token to true - $memory_chart$

i have included the below in search

<panel>
  <title>Database Connections</title>
  <chart>
    <search>
      <query>|search *  $memory_chart$ index=XXXX   itemKey ="ms.db.connection_count" name = "$Host$"  |  timechart eval(round($statistic$(value),0)) as "connection_count"</query>
      <earliest>$field2.earliest$</earliest>
      <latest>$field2.latest$</latest>
    </search>
  </chart>
</panel>
  </row>

now panel search starts when button is clicked and $memory_chart$ is true but the search is not working

  • true index=XXXX itemKey ="ms.db.connection_count" name = "$Host$" | timechart eval(round($statistic$(value),0)) as "connection_count"

Any idea how to fix this.

Use the depends attribute of SimpleXML to display panels when tokens are present: http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.3.3/Viz/PanelreferenceforSimplifiedXML#panel
