set token

[glaser_david]

Can anyone tell me how to set a token to the value of a field in the current found set?

is it

<input type=hidden name="-token.mytokenname" value=[FMP-field:myfieldname]>

where do i actually set the token name and its value? in the input tag, or do i need to do something before?

thanks

It is:

<input type=hidden name="-token.n" value="[FMP-field:myfieldname]">

The 'n' is a number from 0 to 9. The [FMP-Field:....] should be in quotes.

Hope this helps.

[glaser_david]

it helps me out thanks. How can i retreive the token value, and display it to the user?

[FMP-token:9]?

Here it is:

[FMP-Currenttoken:9]

Download the CDML tools bundle from the FM site. The "CDML Reference" database is excellent value.

All the best.

In my page, I have:

...

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-token.1" VALUE="[FMP-field: Doctor_Name]">

<INPUT TYPE="text" name="Doctor_Name" size="40">

..

<INPUT TYPE="submit" name="-View" value="View Records">

Then in my format page, I have:

Doctor name is [FMP-CurrentToken:1]

I got "Doctor name is [FMP-field: Doctor_Name]" in the web page, but not the exact name like "Mike", which I typed in the first page.

Do you know what's wrong with it? I want to use the [FMP-CurrentToken:1] value to do comparison in later pages.

Thanks very much!

You will need to input to the Token; e.g.:

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="-token.1" VALUE="">

Also you do not need this because you have '-view':

<INPUT TYPE="text" name="Doctor_Name" size="40">

..

<INPUT TYPE="submit" name="-View" value="View Records">

This should now show what was typed in:

Doctor name is [FMP-CurrentToken:1]

All the best.
