muliple detail pages & buttons

[joeboldt]

I have a database I am publishing on the web. It works, but not very elagantly. Currently, I find a record and use the -format tag to display the first page of data. When the user is done with that page, the submit button takes them to the next page, etc, etc.

Finally-the question.

I want to have buttons that will

a) save the current page's data and..

go to the page the user wants to edit next.

Seems like this might require some meta-refresh or token passing. If I just saw one example I could get it.

I think.

Probably.

Thank

Joe

You can set a token to remember which record they were on and then pass the token to the next form and let them continue entering new data. You might also set a flag in the database to tell if the record is complete or not so that you can do housekeeping later on incomplete records.

Whoa, maybe I didn't grasp your needs correctly. Do you have so much data that it has to be displayed on multiple pages for each detailed record? The token still works. Just pass and check it with every page viewed.
