Text field blank in Update admin page

Text field blank in Update admin page

I've inserted records into a database using an admin insert page. The records insert fine. When I go to the Update admin page, the Testimonial Company field is blank.

Insert Single Record server behavior setup:
General tab, a 'WA_TestimCompany' session variable was created.
Binding tab, I used the Insert_Sharp_Default > TestimCo (text field name).

Update Single Record server behavior setup:
General Tab value is set to the 'WA_TestimCompany' session variable.
Binding tab, I used the Insert_Sharp_Default > TestimCo (text field name).

This is the same way the other working text fields are set up. What am I missing?

It looks like you aren't filtering your TestimCo table with the $_GET["ID"] value... you just have:
"SELECT * FROM Testim_company"

You are going to have to filter that recordset if you want to return the row associated with the record being viewed.

Tried filtering using the following options:

• TestCo_ID = session variable > WA_TestimCompany
• TestCo_ID = URL Parameter > TestCo_ID
• TestCo_ID = form variable > WA_TestimCompany
• TestCo_ID = session variable > TestCo_ID

I expected the first session variable option to work, but not the others.

As a last resort, tried switching the recordset to the 'prod' table and INNER JOIN the Testim_company table in order to use the $_GET["ID"] runtime value.

All options returned a blank field as before, even after clearing history, emptying cache and restarting browser.

I would think you could filter it by the same $_GET["ID"] variable. I would also think that an INNER JOIN would work if you used the correct column names and then updated the recordset name when referencing the values.
