How to trigger Save button on New form and open the Edit Form

[Nikita Kurguzov]

Dear bnunweiler,
Not sure why this happens, perhaps the Item is submitted twice, you can try to include a simple check to prevent it:

Code: Select all

var saving = false;

fd.onsubmit(function() {
    if (!saving){
        saving = true;
        //execute the rest of the code here
    }
});

Thanks, but this did not work.

Dear bnunweiler,
Please, send us the code that you use on the New Form. We might've found the cause, but we'll need to see your code, so we can test it and make sure that it works as intended.

Here it is:

fd.field('Title').value('TEMP VALUE');
var saving = false;
fd.onsubmit(function() {
if (!saving){
var uri = fd.setUrlParam(decodeURIComponent(window.location.href), 'FDRedirectWithID', 'fd_Item_Edit.aspx?ID=');
fd.sourceFormParam(uri);
return true;
}});
fd.save().click();

Dear bnunweiler,
Please, use this instead, it should solve the issue:

Code: Select all

var location = window.location.href;
if (location.indexOf('FDRedirectWithID') < 0){
    fd.field('Title').value('TEMP VALUE');
    fd.onsubmit(function() {
            var uri = fd.setUrlParam(decodeURIComponent(window.location.href), 'FDRedirectWithID', 'fd_Item_Edit.aspx?ID=');
            fd.sourceFormParam(uri);
            return true;
    });
    fd.save().click();
}

can the above solution be used for a dialog popup form?

[Nikita Kurguzov]

Dear TKay,
Unfortunately, no, it's impossible to redirect users from dialog window. That's because when you close regular window, you can still run JavaScript while it closes and use it for redirection, but as soon as dialog window closes down, all scripts stop running and there is no way to redirect user after that.
