Share Link feature
« on: April 03, 2021, 01:23:46 AM »
hi,
i have  a browse (Procedure Name: Products) in grid format and view button and i wanted to put a share button and i need to generate the link for it.
If it is to share link for browse, i could use the anchor feature. Thus, i can generate link like this : www.mywebsite.com/products?a=100


However, the record id 100 may have more detailed information in the form (Procedure name: ViewDetail). Therefore, i need to generate a link so that the user can open the form directly.

for the form, under advanced tab, i put a session value (ChosenProductID).

the link : www.mywebsite.com/viewdetail?a=100 does not work consistently. Sometimes i get record not found.
the link: www.mywebsite.com/viewdetail?chosenproductid=100 does not work too.

Any advice to get this done correctly?

thanks

jason

You can't use anchor links for a form.
If you want to link to a form see FAQ #4
https://www.capesoft.com/docs/NetTalk12/NetTalkWebFAQ.htm#W4

Since you're wanting it to be a "permanent link" use the W4(old) answer to this question.

Cheers
Bruce
