Mysqli Database Update Shows Blank Screen

I'm trying to update the form and then return to the same page to view the changes. I get a white screen when I set the pageID to the hidden form element that has the recordset pageID. If is hard code the pageId it works but If I try to set parameter it just gives me a white screen. I've attached the file.
Thanks

Line 47 has:

php:
$UpdateGoTo = "manage_pages.php?pageID=\" . echo((isset($_POST[\"RecordID\"]))?$_POST[\"RecordID\"]:\"\") . \"";



it should be:

php:
$UpdateGoTo = "manage_pages.php?pageID=". ((isset($_POST["RecordID"]))?$_POST["RecordID"]:"")  ."";

Thanks Ray that fixed it.

That code was created by the mysqli update form server behavior. Any idea why it would code it wrong? Is there a setting I need to change?

Have you installed the latest version of the extension lately? I'd do that to make sure you have the most updated version.

What did you enter into the redirect after update field in the UI? That could be the problem as well.

I bought this last week and just started using it. It looks like it is Version 1.0.8 June 14, 2019.

I just did it the way I've always done it and selected the php page that had the form on it, then added the parameters where the ID = the hidden form element with the value set using the page recordset ID.

I put your code in and it works, but if I try to make any changes to the update server behavior I get an error now that says the server-side values is improperly coded. I've attached a screen shot.

If I do update the behavior it defaults back to the code on line 47 that wasn't working.

I updated the code in the previous post. Try using that and I think it will work. What version of Dreamweaver are you using?

I'm using Dreamweaver CC 2018 18.0 10136 Build

I don't get the error message when I open the Update Server Behavior, but if I try to set up the go to page with parameters it gets reverted back to:
$UpdateGoTo = "manage_pages.php?pageID=\" . echo((isset($_POST[\"RecordID\"]))?$_POST[\"RecordID\"]:\"\") . \""; and deletes your code.

I assume this is going to happen every time I create a form and need it to go back to the same page with the same parameters. Which I do a lot of.

Please reinstall the extension. I just uploaded a new version that should resolve this issue.

On the website it still looks like the version I downloaded. MySQLi Server Behaviors Version 1.0.8 June 14, 2019.
I installed it, but it didn't make any difference. It's still making the same code that errors out.
