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.

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

Exporting to spreadsheet - cannot get to the button

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.

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
Aggregating subform data
Hi, I'm presently trying to aggregate (sum) data from and store this in the main form as the data is updated in a subform. Similar to a running total in an order when order lines are added or volumes changed. I understand the events to trigger the activity but haven't been able to get it to work accurately. I've tried the 'aggregate' function but can't get it to work with the data in the 'live' form. I've tried simply adding the row value to the total value in the main form but this only succeeds

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

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?
