I have a form with multiple page groups similar to the basic articles example.
I load data into a table. If the user clicks the value in the table, it properly sends over the ID to the new page group to link to the row returned.
I also have a button for entering a new row. That loads the page in the page group properly, however, I want to add an additional parameter based off of a dropdown on the first page/page group.
I tried creating the button as a link instead and passing parameters. It worked fine for blank or hard coded parameters, but not when I included the data field.
So for example I had the parameters:
CF_ID = <left blank>
MEMBERNAME = Bob Smith
On the debug of the form link submission I would see BOTH parameters
On my 2nd page group, I could reference and see that <data:cf_id> was indeed blank and <data:membername> did indeed = "Bob Smith"
However, when I did the following:
CF_ID = <left blank>
MEMBERNAME = {data:memberdropdwn}
On the debug of the form link submission MEMBERNAME no longer appeared and I would ONLY see:
CF_ID = <left blank>
On my 2nd page group if I tried to reference <data:MEMBERNAME>, it would come up <blank>
I tried re-creating the button as a "submit", however, I did NOT see either variable in the debug of the form submission and both came up blank when trying to reference them (I tried <data:MEMBERNAME>, <data:page.MEMBERNAME>, <data:pagegroup.page.MEMBERNAME>
Is there a way to get this to work based on the page group setup?
{data:memberdropdwn} will return a value passed to the form in the url or posted from a previous page, do you have a value passed in either way ?
Hi Max,
I figured out the issue with the submit. I BELIEVE i can get that working submitting from 1 page to another.
However, I can't seem to get it to work with the LINK option. When I use MEMBERNAME {data:memberdropdown}, I don't even see the MEMBERNAME parameter being passed. When I remove the {data:memberdropdown} so the MEMBERNAME is blank, I see a MEMBERNAME parameter with nothing in it.
with {data:member} (member dropdown name)
Without anything entered:
