Below is the code for my working save button, I just need to add the edit

"<a id='saveButton' class='Vibrant Success' onclick='DoSaveAdd()' href='#'>Schedule Multiple Orders</a>"

See this post here.

I think that the Answer by Benjiamin and the link to Dan Diebolt app are the same.

Save and Continue editing

"<a class='Vibrant Success' onclick=$('#RedirectURL').val(document.location.href.replace(/&rl=[a-z0-9]*/,''));$('[name=rl]').val('');$('#saveButton').trigger('click'); href='#'>Save & Edit</a>"

This might be a silly question but do I add the redirect URL or the code is functional now

Just make a new URL button and paste in that new code and it should work.

I'm looking for a button to put on a form that simply saves the current changes to the form *without* having to close the form (and the reopen the record again to make more changes).  The above button formula URL almost works.  It does save the changes, but I get an error:

This site can�t be reached

%3Ca%20class%3D%27vibrant%20success%27%20onclick%3D%24%28%27�s serverDNS address could not be found.


ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

When I go back in the browser, the changes have been saved.  So like I said, it almost works.  Please advise.  

Is there a reason you don�t want to use the

�Save and Continue Editing� button.

Well...that would be great, but I don't seem to have that button.  My Save button has "Save and Close" and "Save and Next".  

There is a setting in form properties to enable that feature. :). It�s called save and keep working.

Who knew!  Bingo.  Why would they they bury that option rather than make it a default??  Thanks for the education.

This works great, but not on mobile. Any idea why?
