I have an advanced form that has an area on the form to submit entries. Below the form is a table that shows all the entries. The form for adding new entries works with no problems.
Above the table I've added a button to download the table in CSV format. I've added the csvexport action to download the table. My problem is the export does not work. I'm not prompted to save the csv file. The page grays out for about 5 seconds and then nothing. If I remove the form for adding new entries, the export works.Is it possible to have the form to add new entries and a button to download the table on the same advanced form? If so, what do I need to do to get the CSV export working?
the button should point to a form page in a different page group (in v7 you create a new page group first below the form pages), that page should have the CSV action set to download
This is how it looks like in v8 (the better version now), but the concept is the same in v7:
This is how I have it setup...Here's the button.
Then in its own page group is CSV Export.
When I click the download button the page grays out for the three to five seconds and I'm not prompted to save the file.
the button should be a Link to the download page, a submit button will not work
I now have the button setup like this and it takes me straight to a blank page. Nothing has changed in the CSV export. Do I need to duplicate the Read Data action from the first page on the download points page?
try to access the download page directly in your browser, does it download a file ?
The page link is at the Link icon at the top right corner of the page
