Since java is no longer supported, is there a method for creating a button that will mimic the save & keeping working button?

I found older threads on this topic but nothing recently. Seems like a nice easy customizable functionality that would make workflow a little easier. I personally think we have to click the mouse too many times to do our jobs as it is. A little bit of automation would be nice. Any thoughts?

Well, Save and Keep working is essentially save and display the record in edit mode.  I think that this can be done with a Rich Text formula field.  

var text RID = IF([Record ID#]>0, [Record ID#], "%%rid%%"); // %%rid%% will grab the Record ID of the newly saved record.

var text URL = URLRoot() & "db/" & dbid() & "?a=er&rid=" & $RID;

"<a class='SaveBeforeNavigating' data-replaceRid=true style=\"text-decoration:none; background: #4b7097; border-radius: 5px; color: #ffffff; display: inline-block; padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px; width:100px; text-align: center; text-shadow: none; border: 2px solid #030404; font-size: 12px \"href='"
& $URL
& "'>Save and Display in Edit Mode</a>"

// you will probably have to play around with the formatting of the button to get it to look nice.
