User hits Submit button and goes to next page...?
Hello, I am new to Zoho Creator, and to scripting. I have created several pages of forms, and would like the user to click submit and go to the next form. How can I customize the Submit button for that to happen? Perhaps the bigger question is related to what I am doing. I am creating a database that tracks a Site, the Collections in a site, and then the Objects in the Collections at the Sites. I'd like the user to fill out the Site first, then tell me about the collections in the site, then the
Table pointing to itself
Am I right in thinking that you cannot have a field in a table that's a lookup to another field in the same table? I'm thinking of implementing a Glossary in Zoho and it would be nice to have 2 or 3 "see also" fields which users could click on to show other entries. A bit like a Wiki! (But I don't want to use Zoho Wiki .... just in case anyone was going to suggest that idea!) Alex
New App Builder: Set Filter on Lookup is not supporting a criteria based on another input field.
The editor basically just lies about succeeding to save but in the end, the criteria is not applied at all. I'm referring to criteria that include another input field e.g. SourceColumn == input.FilterValue -Varun.
Online Store login process
Building on your new feauture for payments, what is the best/suggested way to have customers login in order to be able to create an order. Note that I am using also Zohosites and I am trying to integrate everything into a decent online store application. I expect the customers to be able to browse my views with product details without loging in i.e. using public permalinks/frames. But when the customer wants to place an order then I need him/her to login in order to asign customer information
Login option based on database of registered users
Hello, I think I have read everything about login page which dated far to 2007. I wonder if any suggestions or changes been made so far? I am trying to figure out the way how to use the database form and allow users to enter their email (as username) and password ( as they chosen) to access a web page link. I believe it should be not as difficult, as database is there - form should recall and compare the data entered into fields to data in database and if correct send to web page. I think it should

Issue: Getting schedule to start based on subform variable
My application allows users to request invoices from our accounts department in the Client view by creating a record in an 'Invoice Info' subform. Currently once 'Update' is clicked in the main form, it determines whether a new entry has been made in the subforms (simple tally of records before and after the Update) and if there is a new record it sends an email to our Accounts Department with the relevant information on the client and invoice (from the sub and main forms). I am trying to extend
Problems with nested functions
In my script, under a previous working version I had the following code and it was fine Version 1.0 temp = thisapp.udf_history.get_field_changes(input.HIDDEN_FIELD_CHANGES, "POSTCODE", ps.POSTCODE.toString()); However, when I made changes to my script, I kept getting errors so I was forced to use Version 1.3 postcode_string = ps.POSTCODE.toString(); temp = thisapp.udf_history.get_field_changes(input.HIDDEN_FIELD_CHANGES, "POSTCODE",postcode_string); I think zoho creator has issues with nested functions.

User selection of what record to display on an embedded form
I have a simple requirement but can't figure out how to implement it. I want to display, within a page, a record from a table, and some values from associated records in other tables, I want the user to first make a selection from a drop-down to determine what record gets displayed. A simple example is: - User selects Client Name from a drop-down - The page then displays key information from the Client table for that client, and - Details of each Site that the client has, from the Sites table, and

Multiple versions of a record
Hi all, I have an application where the user fills out a form. Based on that form, an estimate/quote is generated. The process dictates that the user can go back and make changes and have the quote regenerated. I would like to be able to maintain a record of the last 5 quotes, but I can't figure out how to do this effectively as there doesn't seem to be a deluge function to copy a record. On a previous post, someone suggested passing the ID of the parent form and pre-filling a new record based

Formatting single record view/report
I have a view/report created from a standard form. It can be set to show 1 record per page which is what I want. Unfortunately the formatting of the page is extremely primitive unless I am missing something. It only seems to show as a page split right down the middle with the labels on the left and the data on the right. Is there any way to adjust this, perhaps to move it all to the left side of the page? Perhaps to add a background colour or a Title? It does seem possible to un-click auto for

Getting the ID of an inserted record
I'm inserting a record in Deluge using insert into Contracts [ Added_User = zoho.loginuser Engagement = input.ID Instigated_By = "Other" ] What is the best way to get the ID of the inserted record? I've tried changing the insert command to rec = insert into Contract [ .... etc. ] but that fails on saving I've also tried: rec = Contracts [ Engagement == input.ID] and for each rec in Contracts [ Engagement == input.ID] { } both of which don't return an ID. In the end, this seems to work: for each
Hide public section from authenticated users
Hi, I have an application that have a section that is displayed as public for let external users edit some records. It works wonderfully but when I enter with an authenticated user this section (that basically have public view from the views that auth users can access) are showed.

Prevent Creator using https
Hi My app has been working for fine for years at the following URL https://creator.zoho.com/rsoftley/ast/view-perma/FINAL/ but now I've discovered Firefox and IE are causing massive problems with secure pages that mix secure and insecure content.

More about ampersands
There is quite a few old posts about using ampersands, but I fear there is still an issue with these. I have a 'Property_Name' field in my 'Properties' form which allows users to use the '&' sign in the text. However, when they do, the following does not work : message = "#View:Assets_Report?Property=" + property_details.Property_Name; openUrl(message, "Popup window", "height=800, width=600"); In all other instances, it works fine. If there is a technical restriction to the use of ampersands,

Problem sharing an application
Hello I've been developing an application but have run into a problem with sharing. I have shared all the forms and views a user would need to access and use the application but some of the shared forms do not display correctly when a user attempts to open them.

The URL displayed appears to be correct but instead of displaying
API/Deluge Limits Do you have hints and tips
So I am hitting limits (500 API calls and 5000 Deluge Statements) quite regularly, I just wondered if people had any suggestions. This is my position: I have a variable list of CRM Account ID's which has been built up in a previous step. My app needs to go and get Account Data and Related Case Data and Opportunity Data, when I have say 10 ID's it s not much of an issue. its just 30 API calls (10 for each module) and may be 300 statements to process for output etc. But with 200 I hit the API call

I need to send an html page (based on my app's data) as an email content. (the html page itself works great) I tried doing so as it says in this help page - https://www.zoho.com/creator/help/script/send-mail.html by copying all the html code from my zoho page, to the message content in the "deluge mode" (send mail task) It doesn't work.
