DA Javascript error

When trying to add an Insert Multiple Records behavior, this message comes up in a pop-up dialog:

"While executing applyServBehavior in WADA_MultiInsert.htm, a Javascript error occurred."

I've alread tried deleteing the notorious config file so it's not that.

Why would this error happen?

Using the latest DA.

when creating the page, try using the data assist repeat selection behavior for the repeating elements instead of the Dreamweaver Repeat region behavior.

Thanks -- that solved the javascript error.

However, it turns out that no records are being inserted.

Instead, the following page winds up with a long string in the address bar listing all the stuff that should have been written into the database.

sounds like the form was created using the get method instead of post.

change the forms action to post and that should solve the problem.

Thanks, Jason - that did it.

The form was set to Dreamweaver's 'Default' which I thought was Post but guess now that it isn't!

using the default leaves the action blank.

the default action of a form tag is to use GET


this is a throw back to earlier version of HTML that did not have a method attribute. for example in HTML 2 to use the POST method you would add it to the action:
<FORM NAME="form1" ACTION="POST http://mydomain.com/page.html">

If you just added the page address to the action:
<FORM NAME="form1" ACTION="http://mydomain.com/page.html">

it would use the GET method.

I believe it was HTML 3 that introduced the method attribute for the form.
