Decision Check on change{} events not firing correctly in IE
SkyZoho being development here: creator.zoho.com/landofzc/skyzoho/form/111/ is behaving as I would expect in Firefox 2 but in IE 6 the the Decision Check on change{} events are not firing correctly. To see an event fire it seems I have to check 2 boxes and then after that the behavior on further clicks seems unpredictable. The radio button field is working as expected in IE, I don't seem to have any problems with it, it's just these Decision Check fields. Can someone confirm this behavior for me

Link to other webpages AFTER data capture
I'm using Creator to create an information capture form on one of our websites. Does anyone know how how, after the 'submit' button is clicked and the 'success message' shows, I then want another web page to automatically appear.

possible CREATOR bug
I have found a possible bug when trying to remove a field record / Column. If you manage to create to fields with the same name for exmaple "Card Reader" and want to delete, or prevent view of one of the columns, then it fails to do so, I'm guessing becuase it has allowed you to have to fields of the same name. Thought I'd let you know Still think its a top app tho. C craig.judd

Hi, The pop-up calendar tool does not work in IE. It only works in Firefox. Also, is there a way to show the date in a different format, such as mm/dd/yyyy? Thank you. mac734
Pop up Clalendar doesn't work in Embedded Form in IE
When you embed a form in IE the pop up calendar doesnt work. Also, if you have a change in the form based on user input, this doesn't refresh until you click on the form somewhere. Firefox works fine for both. These have been noted as far back as 1 year ago and a comment that Zoho was working on it. Are these likely to be fixed sometime soon?

To/From Email Address Field Setting
Hi: Its very frustrating that we cannot set an email address to forward the form data to? I can understand if the From field is limited to Zoho Admin User Variable, but what is the logic in limiting the To field? Also is there a way to get rid of the zoho branding on the bottom right portion of the form, I can pay for the service it allowed me todo the above. Its a great application, but because of the above limitations, prevents us from deploying it on a large scale. Thanks.
sizes for creator
when working with a view in spreadsheet or in the other display view that looks like spreadsheet view, its not possible to change the size of the labels, its annoying when theres a short word and it covers 1/3 of the screen, my request is make it so we can set the width of those tabs, because its really hard when embedding objects from your site because the labels are huge compared to whats needed. tyrtheinsane
Recording / Showing Exact timestamp
I have created an application to help with the clocking in and out of employees for a large scale group. I am trying to make it as easy for the operator as possible, so having to type in the current time is a little more work.

Currently, with every try, I have not been able to display the current time with the - input.Date_field =

copy / duplicate application
Greetings! I need to make a copy of an application I designed - actually I don't need to copy the data, just the structure. I can't get it to duplicate via my home page or to copy via the application. I've gotten this to work before so I'm wondering if there's some kind of limitation I need to know about. 8muddyboots

More options for displaying data?
Hello there, first of all, let me say that I think you are doing a great job with Creator. I have been testing the application for a few hours now, and it's got all the features I need, it's looking great and working quite well (with a few minor bugs which I'm still hoping to get ironed out). I have one question though: Isn't there a possibility to customize the display of data a bit more (than list/summary/spreadsheet/calendar/chart)? I'm setting up a database for concert locations, and it doesn't

How to do column sum with 2-decimal precision?

Time Zones
Hi, I was just experimenting with adding a time stamp field to one of my database tables. I am in the UK, currently on GMT+1, but the time that is added when I use the zoho.currenttime variable is displayed as GMT-8. I think each user should be able to set their default time zone so that the correct date/time is displayed depending on where they are. Obviously time values should be stored as GMT/UT. What do you think? Thanks, Lee

Testing / Filtering on Checkboxes
Hi there, Zoho Creator is a great application. I don't have any database backgound, but I am able to design a database for an NGO in South Africa, for free, as a volunteer. Thanks very much!! I have a table with the member organisations of the NGO. They pay a small yearly fee for the services of the NGO. So they want to track if a member has payed for each year. So I made an extra form with the code: form Payments { OrganisationName ( displayname = "Organisation Name" type = picklist values = Add_Members.Organisation_Name
private field + hide
Just found a little bug when I was playing around with the private option for a field. I notice that if a field is private=true; the form never gets load (endless loop) when I try to hide that field in the on load script. You should verify this integrity when we save the script in the editor. Obviously, it's already hide to other users with that option so it's not making sense to hide it.

Problems with website embed feature?
I want to embed a link in my website to a form I created in Creator. For some reason, even when I select "access form without login" in the embed code generation section of Creator, it still requires users to log in. Basically, I want to allow co-workers to have access a tech support request form without having to give a user name and password. Is this possible? cfisher

I'm not a programmer. I have a member database that is private. I have a form to collect new member data that I want to embed in a webpage.

How do view data from one form that is NOT in another form?
I have a form called NAMES and a form called ATTRIBUTES. On attributes, I have an imported field from NAMES. I want a view that shows all the records that are in NAMES and not in ATTRIBUTES. I am doing this because NAMES are unique and there may be many ATTRIBUTE records per NAME, but there should always be at least one ATTRIBUTE record per NAME. I want to find the NAME records that don't have ATTRIBUTE records.

How do you encapsulate quotation marks inside a string
I would like to use string date that contains "quotation" marks. How do I encapsulate them so they will not be interpreted as commands by zoho creators scripting language? I would like to pass variables to a URL for searching a library catalog. In the URL below the number '1234567890 (ISBN number) and TITLE OF BOOK would be passed to create a searchable URL. <a href="http://63.117.20.6/ipac20/ipac.jsp?menu=search&term=1234567890&index=ISBNEX">TITLE OF BOOK</a> Thanks, -Reed

Zoho Creator changes how URLs are displayed.
When I first created my database and for the first week, URL in text field were automatically displayed as links, which was perfect. I notice however that that is no longer the case. Now the HTML is displayed is displayed, such as - <a href='https://www.linkedin.com/profile?viewProfile=&key=141450' target='_blank'>https://www.linkedin.com/profile?viewProfile=&key=141450</a>;, which is a huge step backward. Is this a permanent change in how Creator displays or handles URLs, or did I unwittingly change
view problem!
see: http://creator.zoho.com/wendysawyer/ I can't seem to retrieve all the data entered from the form from the view page. Only those fields marked as visible or "display" show up. When I go to the page to edit the view page, I can check the boxes for the other fields to show up, but when I click "done" an "error" message pops up - over and over again. This is very distressing. How do I retrieve the data stored but not available on the view page???? wendy.sawyer

form/view names on script tab in edit mode
When I am in 'edit' mode, on the 'script' tab, the form and view names under the 'Select' drop-down menu don't reflect my current form and view names. For example, in my SoluChem X-ACT app it shows the name for my 'Add_Companies' form as 'Add_Suppliers' in the 'Select' drop-down menu. 'Add_Suppliers' is the name I gave the form when I originally created the app over a year ago. However, I have since changed the form name to 'Add Companies'. Is there a way to change the form name used for scripting
