Trying to include related field after adding new record

Hi,

I'm fairly experienced with Filemaker, but I'm new to XLM/XSLT. I'm trying to convert some CDML pages, and I'm stuck.

The purpose is a database of software users. A user adds a record with name, phone, etc. and choses software from a (value) list. On submitting, he's taken to a reply page which should look up the software in a related table and return the URL link to the software.

The records add correctly, and the software name is passed to the new page, but the link doesn't get appended.

The code, as converted from CDML by the CDML converter looks like:

http://glenmount.bc.edu/SWFiles/

select="$default-record/fmrs:field[@name = 'name']/fmrs:data[1]"/>

'name' is the realted field, 'Link' is the field I'm trying to pull from the related table.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Tom

Are the two fields on the layout?

Do you access them with fmrs:field[@name = 'related_table::field_name'] ?
