Automatic "submit" in IWP

Featured Replies

Hello,

I'm kind of new to Instant Web Publishing in FileMaker Pro 7. I have a layout with a button that calls a script that increments the value of a field (because I think this will be easier in context). This works fine in FP7 but when published on the web (with IWP of course) the result is weird.

The "set field" script line actually changes the value but then the web page waits for the user to click the "submit" button in the status area (it enters "edit current record" mode). I would like for the value to change automatically.

How can I fix this? Is "set field" the wrong script step? Is there a way to bypass the edit mode? Is there a way to refresh?

Thanks in advance,

-GerryGerry

You'll want to add a commit record/request step after the set field step in your script.
