I am not sure whether to use an "inlineAction" or javascript to perform this action. Basically, I am using a database that keys off a date in a global field which provides the link for portals.

Thanks

You could probably do all you need to do by performing a date search directly on the related file. You can use Javascript to construct the date for the search.

All the best.

The web is stateless. Globals can be changed. If your solution is such that the global can be changed, you need to be careful about that use and test it rigorously as in a multiple request which can occur from near-simultaneous usage by clients on the www.

Globals are not the greatest idea for www solutions.

Garry's advice is good.

Sorry to take so long getting back to you guys but I just do this for fun, I think? and I have a day job...or something like that. I'll try to give that a try first and get back to you on my progress.
