finding records in multiple databases

Featured Replies

What I'm trying to do is this:

Have a widget field that the user will enter the widget to be found.

Have two buttons, one to find the widgets in db1 and one to find the widgets in db2. Would like to look like this:

widget search field | db1 button | db2 button

I'm unclear on how to search multiple databases with CDML. Also is it possible to have one button that searches both db's?

Thanks,

r

You should look at InlineActions.

All the best.

thanks, I have used InlineActions before but only when the information was hard coded in, country=USA, stuff like that. I'm unclear on how to have a field appear like an input type within an inlineaction. So I guess the question is if I want the field "country" to appear on the web page as an empty field and the user enters USA then how is that done with inlineactions for two databases?

Thanks,

r

My understanding is that you want the user to search two databases for the one value. One database would be searched initially with the second one being searched as an InlineAction in the Format file.

To pass the search value to the InlineAction, you could use Tokens or an Intra-tag (,field={Field:country},-find) in the InlineAction for the search on the second database.

Hope this helps.
