Newbies caps12 Posted November 21, 2002 Newbies Share Posted November 21, 2002 First i would like to say that i have been trying to learn cdml and have found these forums to be of great value. Now on to my question. I have database where the user can preform a range find. Hear is what my code looks like. <TD ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP> <input type="hidden" name="-Op" value="gte"> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="ID" VALUE="" SIZE=2></P> </TD> <TD ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP> <input type="hidden" name="-Op" value="lte"> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="ID" VALUE="" SIZE=2></P> This produces two fields on the find screen and works great. The problem is if they enter something in the first field and not the second the find performs this >=ID. Is there any way to see if they entered something in the first field and nothing in the second then changeing the find to =ID. I have tried using tokens but i dont know if they are right for this. Is this possible? Or do i have to rely on the user to read instructions? I need this done on about 5 fields. Thanks for any help. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Claridge Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 You can use some Javascript to validate the entries and to change the "-op" value to "eq". The Javascript can then submit the form. Good Luck. Garry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve T. Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 Matt, check out the thread right next to this one (?newbie alert!!). It got sidetracked with another question having to do with field validation for passwords but I think you'll be able to apply it to what you're doing. (Look lower in the post.). -- ST http://www.fmforums.com/threads/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=UBB22&Number=50291&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1#Post51076 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies caps12 Posted November 21, 2002 Author Newbies Share Posted November 21, 2002 Thanks ST i took a look at that thread it may help. I ended up trying tokens then inlineaction. I read on the form that you could change a field from a field in an inline action. Is this true? Or am i just doing it wrong? [FMP-InlineAction:-DB=MYDB,-op="eq",FIELD1="{FMP-Field:FIELD2}",-op="eq",Field3={currenttoken},-sortfield=FIELD1,-sortorder="ascend",-Find] Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
