Portal within a portal

[mickeyfinn]

Is there a way to achieve this? I have a main table (Ticket) which contains many "pages" child records (related table) each of which can have any number of "services". So it's a parent-child-grandchild relationship. I'd ideally like to have the pages display in a one-row portal (which can be set to show a different page by changing the value of a related field) and show a second portal inside listing the related services.

I'm thinking this may not be possible, since the grandchild "services" portal would be related to the parent "Ticket" and not its child "pages". However, there's usually a way to convincingly fake these things if you know enough. I know that I really should try a different layout system, but the user is really keen on wanting all the information on the same layout. Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance to all who reply.

Edit: Ah, never mind. Looks like with a little tweaking I solved my own problem. I just added that additional relationship and the portal worked.

Glad you got it fixed.

Do you or anyone have a sample on how to accomplish "a portal within a portal" or "cascading portals"?

Thanks

I am trying to set up a Master Record that has a child in a portal and when the user clicks a child record it changes what is in the grandchild portal.
