Logging edits to a record

Can you please explain how this is done step by step. Thanks

You may also want to talk to Trinity Integrated Solutions (trinityis.com) about their Log Tracker; which would probably be more useful as a reporting tool.

Hi Dan.. I hope you are doing good !!
Could you please elaborate about the above script. and  how it will get trigger and what are the modifications required in order to use it in my application.

Eagerly waiting for your response :)

Rahul

Hi, Dan! I'd like to +1 Rahul's request above. This is my first attempt with the image onload technique. I tried it several different ways over the weekend and was not able to get the log field to work at all. I've got to be missing something. If there's any way you could provide a step by step on how to use the image onload technique specifically to create this log field it would be greatly appreciated. I can think of numerous instances where having this log in my records would have been a great help! Thanks in advance for your help!

The image onload technique is described at length in a step by step manner here:

Thanks, Dan! That is helpful and much more thorough then the instructional I found. I do have a couple of questions. When it says to create a user defined variable where do I do this at? Also, I see where I can add a page. It gives me three options...1. Home Page, 2. Rich Text Page, 3. HTML/Code Page. Is this the right way to create a user defined page or is that something entirely different? I have tried searching for more info on this but did not find an answer. I appreciate your help and apologize if this information already exists somewhere and I'm not seeing it.

User defined variables are created from the Application Settings page (look for "Variables") and user defined pages are created from the same Applicaiton Settings page (look for "Pages" and select code page):

Application variables act as text fields that can be used in a formula in *any* table in the application.

Ok. Thanks! When I put the following code into my image onload field [-]:

[iol] & "module.js & [/iol]

I get the following error:

Formula syntax error

Expected a valid expression after the "&"

[iol] & "module.js & [/iol]

More on syntax errors...

Any idea on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for your help!

you are missing the second double quote:

[iol] & "module.js" & [/iol]

Yes that was it. Thanks you! One more question. Does the script you provided for logging changes in the example above (https://haversineconsulting.quickbase.com/db/bgcwm2m4g?a=dr&rid=305) replace the generic image onload code (https://haversineconsulting.quickbase.com/db/bgcwm2m4g?a=dr&rid=293) or do they both have to be in the user defined page module.js?
