Dan, I understand the concept of this though this is a bit out of my comfortzone yet. But i'm willing to read, experiment and learn.
I followed the instructions here
https://haversineconsulting.quickbase.com/db/bgcwm2m4g?a=dr&rid=294 ; or I better say I tried as the outcome is different as expected.
step1 = OK
step2 = OK (I assumed this should be a 'code page')
step3 = ?? (I created a field in my table named it 'test' for the time being. The type of the field is 'formula-text'. I don't undertsand the instruction: '
..with some HTML allowed using this formula..' properly. I can;t find that option on a field in the table. I recognize that 'HTML allowed' from a text field in a form but I doubt what is correct here.
I copied the '[iol] & "moduleJumpTheShark.js" & [/iol]' code in the formula section of the field
step4 = the check instructin I don't undertsan (see step 3); all the unchecks are clear and removed form the advanced section of the field-properties
step5 = the field 'test'is placed on my form and I see this code on the form:
test <img qbu='module' src='/i/clear2x2.gif' onload="javascript:if(typeof QBU=='undefined'){QBU={};$.getScript(gReqAppDBID+'?a=dbpage&pagename=module.js&rand='+new Date().getTime())};">I do not see the alert
alert("module.js is now loaded - I now own your page");
Hope this make some sense and you able to see my mistake.
Thanks JWS
