Link in form to open last query?

[Roland]

Hi there,

I have a form that reopens the saved record in the form once again.
For this I use the function "Jump Page" by adding the row-id as a variable which works pretty well.

My users would like to get a function in this form to reopen the last query.
If they use the browser back button, the page has expired and they have to reload, which is not very comfortable.

I could not find the filter variables in the form and I don't know how to access them. But they must be stored somewhere as if I open the table view again, the filters are still preselected.

Can I access the filter-variables in the form to build a link that opens the last query with the preselected filters?

Thank you for help
Roland

Hello Hugh,

it seems that my question is not that simple. I thought, if I can access the filter variables it would be possible for me to build a link including this variables to start the filtering again.

Hi Roland

My users would like to get a function in this form to reopen the last query.

I'm not sure what you mean?
The table filter values are stored in php's $_SESSION['fabrik'][x] (where x is the table id) - does this help you at all?

Cheers

Hi Rob,

thank you for the information about the session variable. That solved my problem.

Hi Rob,

thank you for the information about the session variable. That solved my problem.

We have someone else with the same issue:

Could you take a couple of minutes and describe your solution?
