Modify Question!
Hi,

I want my users to enter the title of their website instead of the URL when they are trying to modify their site info, is that possible?

Please don't ask why I want to do this! Laugh

Cheers,
PCMANIA

Why?

They get listed all their records and just need to click on a record.

Hello everyone,

I am still trying to figure out how to do this. I would really appreciate it if you can help me with this. I want my users to enter their site Title / ID instead of entering the URL in order to modify. How am I suppose to do this?

Thanks again,
PCMANIA

Hi,

You should be able to do this by changing the modify form. Replace the textbox named 'Current_URL' with 'Current_Title' and it will search off that.

Cheers,

Are you making sure the "title" field is UNIQUE then?

The advantage of using the URL field, is that the URL is unique. If two sites have the same URL, they are, effectively, the same site. Not true with titles.

Good point, using Current_ID would be a better option.
