email link and redirect to modification
Hi all, this is what I wanted to do: I have email function working properly which emails all the contents to specified email address upon adding a new record. Now instead of emailing all the contents, I would like to send an email with a link like (http://www.mydomain.com/dbman/db.cgi?ID=3). So when they click on the link, it should take them to the login page and after logging in, directly jump to record modification page with the ID that was passed as parameter in the email. I have looked over other sites, but it didn't quite help.

Thanks

There are a few ways you may be able to accomplish this.

check out the FAQ noted below within the "Admin" section. Also under navigation.

I'm thinking the thread called "Display data on login?" may help, if not, there are several others that address this issue.

I'm not sure whether you are using a userid or just a record ID as your key field, so am not able to give a specific answer.
