Custom triggers...

When I write triggers by hand in code view, and then open the widget (update record), WebAssist replaces the trigger code with "any form post".

Simple example: I would rather write:
isset($_COOKIE["autoLogin"]) == false
WebAssist auto completes as "any form post".

Instead of:
!isset($_COOKIE["autoLogin"]) != ""
WebAssist auto completes as "!isset($_COOKIE["autoLogin"])"...works fine.

I don't like taking chances with custom code incompatible with widgets...as I may use the widget in the future to make an update while forgetting about my custom trigger and bam code annihilated.

Is this by design, a bug or am I not understanding something?

custom triggers will not be retained, the extension is not able to recognize your custom trigger code, so will replace it with one of the standard triggers.

your best bet would be to use the before page load trigger in the extension, then add the custom trigger as separate code around the block for the behavior.

for example:

<?php

//custom trigger

if(!isset($_COOKIE["autoLogin"]){

?>

<?php

if("" == "") {

.....rest of update code...

}

?>

<?php 

//end custom trigger

}

?>

Ok...that is a workable solution.

Thanks,
