In creator version 4 I would use a custom action that fetches the employee record based on the login ID. Then an openurl statement

The uploaded file doesn't return the correct script like the one that was stored with the link. So, there is an additional script involved to get the correct image URL*/ //Remember, Product_Image used below is the Image field's deluge name

Replacement for JavaScript in HTML Pages
Dear Zoho Experts and Support team, In the implementation of HTML View, many time there is a need raised to use JavaScript, but as Zoho Doesn't support it So I want a replacement for this need, I am used many tricks, like advance CSS3 Animation but i think Zoho also gives a limitation to use CSS3 animation, and the second limitation to use CSS3 type animation is to it is increase the lines of coding, a typical simple CSS3 Animated Image slider will take almost 700-1000 lines, So It will be take

Add subform filtering to Print Template
Here's a proposition that I think could be very useful. Please see attached picture. I have a mainform "Venue" that includes a subform "Ressources" where I display the material and electric ressources needed for that venue. Material and electric ressources are both stored in the same form, for easier data entry and management, but when it comes to printing the venue's datasheet, it would be much easier to read the data if the material and electric ressources would be displayed in different tables.

Multi-select lookup -- keeping the order they were chosen in?
Hello I have a multi-select lookup to a list of features from which I would like to choose. When I add more than one item from the list, they get displayed in the order they appear on that table (rather than the order I selected them in).

Execution of a script in opposite order
Hi, I'm starting to write some Deluge script and I'm really surprise about a behaviour of the system. I've just insert to simple line in a script while one field is being updated: Alert "step 1" Alert "step 2" and with my great surprise I've checked that the system show me the alerts in opposite order so before step 2 and then step 1 I cannot really believe that. Could you please tell my what's matter? Thanks. Luca.
Subform in form column
In the ZC3 version we are currently using we can have subforms in the form columns, however now I am working on migration to ZC5 and seems we are no longer able to have the subforms in colums, but rather have to span across the entire form. Am I missing something, or is this a new limitation?

Weird Anomoly
Im new to Zoho so apologies in advance if this is a dumb question. I have a weird problem while using the Order Management application. Data is loaded into the database without issue, however the price / currency information does not appear in the subform (New Order) correctly. For example: The price of a product is £2.18 but in the Load New Order form / product subform the lookup finds the record but displays the price as £2.00. In fact all of the prices appear to have no decimal places. I've tried

SubForm - entering data through subform
I have a "Family" form and "Children" form. They are parent-child relationship. "Children" has a look up filed ("Family ID" field) to connect the parent form. My idea is to display children's information when we open a family record, but I found unexpected behavior. Is it expected? When I open one family record, I see a subform underneath. I can enter children's information. First question is do I have to choose Family ID (look up field) for each child manually? Other online database recognize what

Ability To Export To MySQL Schema
This is great, I just wish there was a way to store the data on our own server, instead of on yours. This is a concern for business and security. One solution I thought of is to allow the user to export the database once they are completely done designing the forms. So you dump the entire database schema to a MySQL .sql dump file. Then all you have to do is simply load the dumped .sql file into your own MySQL server. Then in this application you have a place to enter the MySQL server location/ip

Need to change date format in deluge to interact with an API
Hello, I am working with an API for an external service that I'm integrating into my app but there are a couple of date parameters that need to be sent in a specific format. One is a timestamp like this 2018-06-13T15:00:56.782Z and another is similar but just the date like this 2018-06-13. When I use the built in function 'today' I get "Jun 15,2018" and when I use 'now' I get "Jun 15,2018 09:13:16". I can't find any functions to change the format, how can I do this to match the ISO8601 format required?
