I'm getting an error about it having javascript:

Only text, Quickbase-accepted functions, fields, variables, and certain HTML tags are allowed in this field. JavaScript is not supported.

Mark, here's the new code I wrote to replace javascript. It's meant to be used as a button in a report to mark a record as "reviewed" with the username and date/time recorded.

var text name = "&_FID_12=";    //FID for a user field I want to change
var text stamp = "&_FID_13=";    //FID for a date field I want to change
var text tk = "cm7ucz6d2iyh6db4exfkbpzgsyx";         //Apptoken for my application
var text return = "&rdr=' + escape(window.location); return false;});";

    URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=API_EditRecord&apptoken=" & $tk & "&rid=" & [Record ID#] &
    $name & ToText(User()) &
    "&rdr=" &
        
        URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=API_EditRecord&apptoken=" & $tk & "&rid=" & [Record ID#] &
            $stamp & Today() &
            "&rdr=" &
                URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=doredirect&z=" & Rurl()
        ))​

        Just so I understand what these extra posts were added to the bottom of this thread. They have nothing to do with copy to clipboard, right? This is just how to update a field and refresh the page, right?
