Insert/Update forms do not work if included with Framework

Insert/Update forms do not work if included with Framework. Nothing gets submitted and it totally go to the wrong redirect page. It goes to the directory where the form originated from instead of the page it was suppose to redirect to.

Should mention I am still using 2.0.7 if that helps

Updated to 2.0.8 and replaced the library file as instructed in sticky ... same problem. No change.

Brad,

I am using DA with framework builder without any issues, the key I think is where you are posting your forms to I use for example in my admin section:

<form  action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].((isset($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]))?'?'.$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]:"") ?>" id="frmDelete" method="post" name="frmDelete">

Does that help ?

Thanks Dave,

I am not sure I understand?

Since when do we have to put something in the form action? The form works perfectly when you go to the form directly. It is only when it is included that it no longer works.

Brad

The form needs to be posted back to the page it is included in, not the form page itself.

Yes, of course. That is what I have set in the redirect in the extension UI is to redirect to the actual page not the included page.

Brad,

I don't know what else to suggest as I had no issues getting pages with the data assist server behaviours working, one thing is that I don't use the wizard to create these pages.

Brad,

When using the DataAssist pages as plugins using the framework, you will need to change the forms action to post to the main plugin page.

your question:

  Since when do we have to put something in the form action?  

is answered simply by saying; Since you are using the DataAssist pages as plugins.


you then say:

  Yes, of course. That is what I have set in the redirect in the extension UI is to redirect to the actual page not the included page.  

the redirect is not the same as the forms action.

the forms action is where the form data is posted. The redirect occurs after the posted form data is processed.

Thanks Jason, I see what you are getting at now. However that brings up another issue. When I have a page with an included form that is set to only show if the table is empty (based on variables of course) submitting the form should then go back to that page but the data should be displayed and the form should be gone.

The data is being added to the table but the page does not reflect that you have to refresh the page for the data to show and the form to disappear. But by doing that it submits the form again so duplicate data is entered.

Any chance you guys could do up a documentation on this?
