July 8, 200322 yr CDML doesn't do nested portals, right? Like: [FMP-portal:P1] [FMP-field:P1::fieldp1] [FMP-portal:P2] [FMP-field:P2::fieldp2] [/FMP-portal] [/FMP-portal] ... or is there something special needed? Thank you. Bradley
July 8, 200322 yr FM doesn't nest portals CDML 'lives' on the top of it...therefor ...it would be nice though All the best
July 8, 200322 yr Author Thanks for the post reply, Leb i Sol. Yeah, too bad... it would be easier, no? Wanna see my solution? (Makes the second portal in the layout, maybe even the second relation, unneeded... until I think of something more complicated. :-) <table> [FMP-portal:P1] <tr> <td>[FMP-field:name]</td> <td> [FMP-inlineaction: -db=db.fp5, -lay=main, id={field:P1::theid}, -find ] [FMP-field:item] [/FMP-inlineaction] </td> </tr> </table> Of course the related "theid" field needs to be suppled in the P1 portal.

July 8, 200322 yr Author Oops... I forgot to put [FMP-record] inbetween the [FMP-inlineaction] tags to display multiple finds... sorry. Bradley
July 8, 200322 yr I wish this was a function in FM...nested portals that is... it would be nice to use it when it comes to looking into whole hierarchical structure ItemID |___Customers |_____Repairs |_______Workers of the Item |___________Shipping Companies etc. |___ <--- being a portal I know u can "simulate" this when making repors and sub-sub-sub's but no real solution for this when it comes to entry/forms/portals on one layout....perhaps some day All the best!
