Open an InfoPath form on Button Click

[pselman]

Hi,


I'm wanting to open up a particular Info Path form from a button within a form. Can you advise if this is possible and if so how?


Thanks

Instead of using button you can simply add Hyperlink with in the form as we use it for word file. But the link must be of browser based form. Cient based forms will not work.

Add a button and add to it the following code (inside the OnClick editor of the button):

Code: Select all

fd.openForm('/Lists/MyList/MyForm.aspx');

or

Code: Select all

fd.openFormInDialog('/Lists/MyList/MyForm.aspx');

subsituting the URL as appropriate.

Hi,

I have successfully added a button that opens my link. How can i achieve that it opens the link a new window?

Thanks,

You can use this:

Code: Select all

window.open("/Lists/list/fd_Item_EditForm.aspx?ID=2"); 

However, whether the page is opened in a new window or tab is up to the user's browser settings. Also, the popup may get blocked by the browser.
