Re: Oval buttons and other changes?

From @Kirk Trachy's Magic Buttons app in the Quickbase Exchange (change the border-radius property):
"<a  style=\"text-decoration:none; background: #f90; border-radius: 5px; color: #fff; display: inline-block; padding: 8px 20px; width:310px; text-align: center; text-shadow: none;  \"href='" & [_DBID_TASKS] & "?act=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_48=" & [Record ID#]& "&z=" & Rurl()& "'>39B. Add Task with your own CSS Color</a>"

// This contains your own CSS button.  This option allows you to create colored buttons that display in Mobile and they display in your emails.
// If you use a formula URL or a formula text field with QuickBase's own class=Vibrant... they will not survive in emails or mobile applications.  All you will get is a text with an underscore.  If you use your own CSS they live on an prosper. :-)​

    Click Minded will produce an image file like png format.  You would store that image as a file attachment in an EOTI app called Images.

    The image can be displayed like this in that app.

    <img src=" & URLRoot() & "up/" & Dbid() & "/a/r" &
    [Record ID#] & "/e7/v0 width=150>"

    where 7 is the field ID of the image.  If you expose that code, in the EOTI app, you have a string which will make the image.

    Then in you real app where you need the button you make a formula Rich Text button as a hyper link.

    var Image = .. the string from the EOTI app
    var text URL = .. your URL field or formula

    <a href=" & $URL & ">" & $Image & "</a>"

      Thanks! Those both sound like they will work in my use case.

      Mark, do I need to use an EOTI app or can I just create an internal table with images, in the same app?
