Search/Filter Box In Web Direct

[oa-sys]

Hi All

 

I'm putting in field in a web direct layout with a script trigger that activates on field exit.

The field is set to 'go to the next object' with tab/enter/CR

 

The field is used to search/filter so that a user enters a search/filter criteria and hits enter/CR - which activate the search/filter script.

This of course works well on FMP client, but NOT on web direct

 

On web direct using enter/CR on the same field - the field will 'go to the next line' which results in the in-ability to user enter/CR to activate the script.

I've tried to change the field type to 'number' with no success.

 

I've tried to create HTML search filed, but don't have enough HTML knowledge to post the content of the filed back to FMP to trigger the script

I've gotten far, but not far enough :-)

 

tried using:

<form method="post" action=action="fmp://my.server.com/Filenamel?script=test" id="search">

 

Would love your ideas/suggestion/assistance.

 

Thanks in advance.

All, see this post:  http://fmforums.com/forum/topic/92466-webdirect-prevent-enterreturn-in-data-entry-field/?hl=exit+field

 

Also, in one case I was able to use a Popover window with the Search field in it and hitting return worked to close it.
