[FX.php List] Basic help

Tue May 27 22:20:53 MDT 2008

All your comments help thanks. I feel I am a dunce though.
So page 1, I get, normal HTML form with post data.
Page 2 needs to be a fmfind using the post data correct? Do I pass the recid
to the next page using hidden form fields?
Page 3 an html form filled out with the data from page 2. correct?
Page 4 fmedit to send data to fm.

I have tried Dreamweaver with FMStudio, FXForge and hand coding only to
circle around a few times, maybe I am just confusing myself.
Anybody have sample code for these 4 files? I learn better by looking at
existing code.

Thank you.
John

Sometimes very basic...isn't.

This process involves 4 primary steps on three pages.
1) Log in Form (post method) PAGE 1
2) Log in Form Processing (FMFind) PAGE 2
3) Display Edit Form  (Post method) PAGE 2
4) Edit From Processing (FMEdit) PAGE 3

First issue I see in your code is an attempt to use $_GET to process the
login. Shoudn't it be $_POST?

Next, the Edit code below belongs on the last page. Page 2 is for doing the
query and then displaying the result to edit in a form.

Also, here needs to addl code at the top of Page 2 to handle unsuccesfull
logins.

Finally, Aas Alex states, you HAVE To have the -recid to edit the record.
You get that from the result of the query.

Hope that helps.
