Like someone else in a recent post, I was hoping for greater dialog capabilities in v10, and actually, Richard had noted in an email that "Enhancements in the dialog builder are planned" but per another post' info, it won't be anytime soon.
As someone still learning Alpha, I had used a dialog for an upload (primarily because I had been able to find code in the forum and help info and the AlphaToGo site to do such). It works, but I was pretty disappointed when I realized that the dialogs didn't have the same controls as the new grid detail views (edit-combo lookups, etc). I know that in theory, similar HTML and XBasic that works in the dialog would work in a grid detail view, but I can't seem to make it happen.
I got the "FILELIBGRID.DETAILVIEW_PART.SUBMITBUTTON" by looking at the a5w page source in my browser as suggested by Steve Wood in an old post (though this may have changed with the v10 grids?) and I got the "x_filelibgrid.Output.Body.DetailView_HTML = stritran(x_filelibgrid.Output.Body.DetailView_HTML,"method=\"post" from other posts.
The FileLocation control in the Detail View is a freeform layout with "<input type="file" width="200" name="FileToUpload" >".
Can someone help me get this working? I'm missing something...
Thanks in advance.
