Hi,
I run into another problem...

In my form php I get data from my form and insert a new record into a different list.
I want to insert the id as a link into the new list. The new field is called parent_id. Is it possible to format the data as a guess link?
Cheers

Code:
...
$parent_id=$formModel->getElementData('fab_cp1_line_tour___id',true);
...
$query=$mydb->getQuery(true);
$query->insert('fab_deviation_standard')
->set('parent_id = '.$mydb->quote($parent_id))
...
$mydb->setQuery($query);
$mydb->execute();
$id=$mydb->insertid();
 
Not sure what you mean.
"Guess link" is a field element feature. This can be set in the element setting in your "different list".
What is your setup (lists, relations between the lists, parent_id coming from a reapeat group? ...)
 
Hi troester,
many thanks for reply. I've managed myself by changing the field into a database join linked to the original table.
I have:
  • form A (CP1) with main information
  • form php is running on form A to insert records with relevant information into form B (Abweichungen)
  • on tabe B now 'parent_id' is linked to detailed view of record form A
Popup or new tab would be nice, but link target new window/tab under list settings doesn't work.
Cheers,
Bianka
