What a href link to use on modify_success.html template to return to link detail page?
Hi, I want to place a link on the modify_success.html template for the title that will take the user back to the detail page of the link they just modified. At the moment we're using a live system so everything (even detail pages) goes through page.cgi

Thanks,

Hi,

Mmm, not quite as simple as just using a javacscript.back(-1), cos that may not actually take them back to the right place.

I'm assuming what you really want, is for them to see a link back to the page they were last one, before going to modify.cgi?

If so, in include_form.html, add this:

Code:
<input type="hidden" name="prev_url" value="<%Plugins::ULTRAGlobals::Get_Page_Referrer()%>" />

Then, on modify_success.html / add_success.html, you can then use:

Code:
<a href="<%prev_url%>">Click here to return to the page you were last on</a>

Untested, but should work fine =)

Cheers

You assumed correctly and it works just as I needed it to work.

Thanks for all the help.
