Edit a Record thru Web Publishing Engine

Featured Replies

Hello,

I am trying to edit a FileMaker record using browser.

When I click Edit button, I want that a new page should appear where the "existing values should appear" in editable mode.

I am able to do it for records in text boxes using following code:

Document Title:


docName()

Now, the problem is that I am not able to do the same thing for a text area using the following code:

Comments:


submissionComments()

For text area, the result is that when I click on Edit button, a new page is displayed, but the exiting comments value is not retained.

Would appreciate any pointers and help.

Thanks,

Vikas
