------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Sep 27 04:08:34 -0700 2005 ------- A often requested functionality when developing database-driven applications is the following: Consider a form displaying some table data, plus a button. When the button is pressed, a secondary form should be opened (ideally modal, which currently seems to be impossible with the forms-are-non-modal-text-documents approach), to allow the user to enter data in some dependent table. After this form is closed, some refreshes to the primary form should be made. Currently, this involves a lot of scripting, and is nearly impossible to all but the most experienced script developers. It would be desirable to simply have an action "open a form" as possible value for the "Action" property of a button (which currently contains actions such as "submit form", "reset form", "load document", "move to next record", and the like), to relieve the user from all this cumbersome and error-prone scripting work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
