Thanks MartOn, very helpful and a very quick response.
After your advice I'm nearly there, I have got the desired behaviour
using the or-cancel tag but by adding the cancel param value to the
def in the generated pages.dryml. Obviously I need to define it in a
non generated file to preserve the behaviour.
This is the pages.dryml:
<def tag="new-for-project-page" polymorphic/>
<def tag="new-for-project-page" for="Review">
.
.
<section param="content-body">
<form owner="project" method="post" param>
<field-list: skip="project"/>
<submit: label="Create Trade Review"/>
<!--<cancel: with="&this.project"/> Need to
provide this via a specific .dryml file-->
</form>
</section>
.
.
</def>
So now the question is what should the file be called and how to
supply the cancel param value?
I have tried a new.dryml file as follows:
<new-for-project-page>
<form:>
<cancel: with="&this.project"/>
</form:>
</new-for-project-page>
But no joy, I'm guessing that I need to merge the form tag ?
Thanks again
