Portal & ,Format problem!

[Jukkie]

Hello,

I have the following problem with showing the same style used in the FMP portal on my internet page.

I use the next CDML code:

[FMP-Portal: Prijzenlijst_sjsolutions]

[FMP-field: prijzenlijst_sjsolutions::Productomschrijving, format]

[/FMP-Portal]

My portal show the right font and the right size, but when I make one line Bold in the portal, within Filemaker, it doesn't show on my internet page.

HOW COME or better what to do?

Greetings Jukkie

Are you using a Layout to make the Row bold? Or, are you using another method?

All the best.

Hello Garry,

I make in File Maker handmate one PortalRow bold. What I want is to show this also on the internet as a bold PortalRow.

That's why I tied the ,format tag but this only takes the font, size and color. Not the bold PortalRow this Row looks simular like all they other Rows.

What do You mean by are you using a Layout?

Greetings Jukkie

try [...,raw] instead of [...,format]

Hello Unable,

I have tried all the tags like raw, html, url and format. Non of these tags worked.

I believe the problem is that the value wich is made bold is actualy in the related database. And the tag format shows only the style of the database I connect too.

It's like the same problem using [FMP-CurrentRecID] in a portal it show the allways the first record in the portal.

Hopefully there is an other way to get what I want.

Instead of portals use the inlineaction tag to retrieve and display the information from the related db. Then try the parameter ,format with the field(s) as you tried with portals. The inlineaction should allow the display of data as it is in the db file.

It has to do with related db's and how relationships work (and don't work on the web). There are similar problems with trying to use a drop-down from a related file.

HTH. Good Luck.

I will look into the inlineaction tag.

Thanks,

The inlineaction tags go on the results page and display the data there.

It might look something like:

[fmp-inlineaction:-db=yourdb.fp5,-lay=web,-max=5,-sortfield=afield,-sort=ascend,searchfield={fmp-field:search},-find][fmp-record][fmp-field: Productomschrijving, format] [fmp-field: otherfield,format]<br>[/fmp-record][/fmp-inlineaction]
