Building the Record Detail Reply page

If you have given database modification privileges to your Web audience, they see a confirmation page in the browser after they modify the database. Use the Record Detail Reply page to create the message, provide information about the current action executed, and provide links to other pages in your site. For information on creating links and anchors, see Creating links and anchors.

To provide the Web audience with information about the current action (for example, edit, delete, duplicate) executed:

1. Create a new blank page.
   
2. Choose FileMaker Form Library from the View menu (Windows) or the Window menu (Macintosh).
   
3. In the RECORD DETAIL (EDITABLE) section of the library, select the entry for General information, under the Detail Reply Page section.
   
4. Drag the tags (for example, drag FMP-CurrentRecordCount) you want to include in the Record Detail Reply page.
   
5. Type supporting text next to the FMP-CurrentRecordCount icon.

   

6. Save your page.
   
   The name of the Record Detail Reply page should correspond to the filename used in all files that refer to it. For example, the Record Detail page might have "record_detail.htm" as the filename, and the Record Detail Reply page might have "record_detail_reply.htm" as its filename.
