I would like to create a DTML Form that may be called with or without an =
argument (say, member_number). I have tried something like this, a DTML =
Form named AddAddressForm:
<dtml-var standard_arfs_header>
<dtml-form method=3Dpost action=3DAddAddress>
<table>
<dtml-unless member_number>
<tr>
<th>Member Number</th>
<td><input type=3Dtext name=3Dmember_number></td>
</tr>
</dtml-unless>
<tr>
<th>Address</th>
<th>City</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type=3Dtext name=3Daddress type=3Dstring></td>
<td><input type=3Dtext name=3Dcity type=3Dstring></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan=3D2><input type=3Dsubmit></td>
</tr>
</table>
</dtml-form>
My intent is to have a form that, if called with no input paramters, =
will display a field so I can enter the member_number. If the form is =
called with an input parameter, the member_number field will not be =
displayed, but the passed in value will be passed on to the AddAddress =
Method.
The AddAddress method called by the form is a DTML Method which, in =
turn, calls a ZSQL Method to add the information to the database.
The AddAddressForm will be called from another DTML Form. The line =
calling the above code looks like this:
<a =
href=3D"......./AddAddress?member_number=3D&dtml-member_number;">Add</a>
The only way I can "see" the member_number in the AddAddressForm is to =
use <dtml-var member_number>. The shorthand _['member_number'] and =
&dtml-member_number; do not seem to work. Is this because of the =
namespace issues with the DTML Form?
Am I trying to do too much here? I could make two forms, but I don't =
like the idea of maintaining two nearly identical forms. Can this be =
done?
Thanks for your help.
