Problem with File Downloader and dynamic file name

Hi,

with the DB Record Loader action I get the name of a file into my form data array.
The Debugger tells nicely

Data Array:

Array
(
    [option] => com_chronoforms
    [chronoform] => FBRComments
    [UE] => Array
        (
            [dateiname] => matlab.pdf
        )
)

Now I would like to get the "dateiname" part of the data array into the File Downloader
but I fail...

In the Downloads Path I noted /var/www/mnd/dmdocuments/fbr/

File name parameter:

The download works nicely if I put the correct file name there.

If I put {UE.dateiname} there the form shows up and I get a
"The file path doesn't exist: /var/www/mnd/dmdocuments/fbr/{UE.dateiname}",
so obviously I can't put any dynamic data there ?


There is the File Name Path parameter with the comment "the path to the file name in the data array",
but I have no idea what to write there.

I tried [UE].[dateiname], ['UE'].['dateiname'], {UE}.{dateiname}, {UE.dateiname}
- each time an open file window opens to open "index.php" (sorry for three times "open"),
and I dont see anything of the original form.

Do I have to set any Custom Code in front of the File Downloader to provide him with the data ?

Thanks for any help...

Kind regards,
Doris

Hi Doris,

I think that is what the File Name Path box is for. Please try putting UE in there.

Hi Bob,

thanks for your reply.

Sorry to say, but that's exactly where I put it... It simply does not work for me.
So I had to solve it without the File Downloader...

The submit button in my form now says

<input name="getProtokoll" class="" value="Download" type="button" onClick="window.location.href='dmdocuments/fbr/{UE.dateiname}';" />

That does the trick...
