token not setting

[pspafford]

Hey everyone,

I'm using CDML tokens for the first time.

An initial page has the employee entering the date, and selecting an href link of their name. That link has an onClick event that uses JavaScript to go to the following link:

http://127.0.0.1:591/FMPro?-DB=gTime.fp5&-Format=timeEnter.html&-Token.2=5&Token.1=04/14/2004&-View

The format file is where they enter the details of their timesheet. There are fields in the format file like this:

<input type="text" name="date" value=[FMP-CurrentToken: 1] />

<input type="text" name="staffId" value=[FMP-CurrentToken: 2] />

Token.2 goes to staffId all okay, but Token.1 only sends a single slash character("/") to date. I had thought the slashes in the date might be the problem, but even when I changed the date to a single number ("4"), I had the same problem.

Can you offer any advice?

Thanks,

Paul

Have you tried adding quotes:

<input type="text" name="date" value="[FMP-CurrentToken: 1]" />

<input type="text" name="staffId" value="[FMP-CurrentToken: 2]" />

Good Luck

Hey Garry,

I just tried it -- no joy: I don't even get the slash.

Thanks,

Paul

Got it! Someone on FMWebtalk noticed that there was no hyphen in front of "Token.1" in my generated URL. That's one of those silly little typos that just deserves a good slap.

Thanks,

Paul
