CDML Portal - Adding Portal Row Problem - Other Internet Technologies

April 21, 200322 yr

Hello.

I have been trying unsuccessfully to add a row to my portal.

Here is my code:

<HTML>

<HEAD>

<TITLE>Register</TITLE>

</HEAD>

<P>

<TABLE>

<TR>

<TD>Enter Personal ID:<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="CE_Registrations::Personal_ID.0" VALUE="" SIZE=10></TD>

<TD>Enter Password:<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="CE_Registrations::Personal_OP.0" VALUE="" SIZE=10></TD>

</TR>

</TABLE>

<BR>

</FORM>

</BODY>

</HTML>

Can any tell me what I'm doing wrong.......

Thanks! Donna

Donna,

"-add" does not exist. You would need to use either "-edit" or "-new" with

to create a new Portal row.

All the best.

I've just noticed that you have a nested Form:

</FORM>

This will not work. Just use the "Submit" with a "-edit" or "-new".

All the best.

Thanks Garry! As usual, something I just overlooked. I have reworked this now but it still is not working.

Perhaps my problem is that I'm trying to pass a token into a portal.

Here's my revised code:

<HTML>

<HEAD>

<TITLE>Register</TITLE>

</HEAD>

<P>

<TABLE>

<TR>

<TD>Personal ID: <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="CE_Registrations::Personal_ID.0" VALUE="6057" SIZE=10></TD>

</TR>

<TR>

<TD>Password: <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="CE_Registrations::Personal_OP.0" VALUE="XYZ123" SIZE=10></TD>

</TR>

<TR>

<TD>Event ID: <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="CE_Registrations::Event_ID.0" VALUE="2003-TR24" SIZE=10></TD>

</TR>

<TR>

<TD>Event Name: <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="CE_Registrations::Event_Name" VALUE="OCLC/ILL: The New Web Interface" SIZE=45></TD>

</TR>

</TABLE>

<BR>

</FORM>

</BODY>

</HTML>

Any suggestions?

Thanks! Donna

To start with, you cannot have nested Forms! E.G.:

<BR>

</FORM>

</BODY>

Make it look like this:

<BR>

</FORM>

</BODY>

It seems to me that you are trying to add a new record to the file "CE_Registrations". However, the Portal has the same name which suggests that the Portal exists in another file, not "CE_Registrations".

Try this:

<HTML>

<HEAD>

<TITLE>Register</TITLE>

<LINK REL=stylesheet HREF="http://209.174.169.66:591/OnlineReg/online.css" TYPE="text/css">

</HEAD>



<FORM ACTION="FMPro" METHOD="post">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-DB" VALUE="CE_Registrations">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-lay" VALUE="Online_R">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-Format" VALUE="thank_you.htm">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-Error" VALUE="p_error.htm">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-Token.3" VALUE="2003-TR24">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-Token.4" VALUE="OCLC/ILL: The New Web Interface">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-Token.5" VALUE="6057">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-Token.6" VALUE="XYZ123">



<BODY CLASS="first">

<P>

<TABLE>

  <TR>

                <TD>Personal ID:  <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Personal_ID" VALUE="6057" SIZE=10></TD>

 </TR>

        <TR>

                <TD>Password:  <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Personal_OP" VALUE="XYZ123" SIZE=10></TD>

  </TR>

        <TR>

                <TD>Event ID:  <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Event_ID" VALUE="2003-TR24" SIZE=10></TD>

 </TR>

        <TR>

                <TD>Event Name: <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Event_Name" VALUE="OCLC/ILL: The New Web Interface" SIZE=45></TD>

      </TR>

</TABLE>

<BR>

<BR>        

<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="-New" Value="Complete Registration">

</FORM>

</BODY>

</HTML>

Hope this helps.
