Exact Form Page Break
I've looked high and low for an answer here in the community, but can't find an answer: How do I insert a page break on an exact form? My form has multiple pages for one record - it prints a version of the record for the manager, and a slightly different version for the production line. I also want a page break prior to a related detail table so that the table fits nicely on one page. I've tried various html codes ~<style>.break {page-break-before: always;}</style><h1 class=break></h1>~ and ~<p style="page-break-after: always;"></p>~ I tried removing the tildes as well. No go. I've read that I should be able to edit the exact form directly from the dbpage... how do I do that? Where do I find that? Thanks!14Views3likes4CommentsExact Forms - Conditional Code (Including Checkboxes)
Just wanted to share this simple code as I know it has been asked on quite a few threads. First, YES, you can insert conditional formulas into your Exact Forms. I have been doing it for years. No need to make extra fields. BOOLEAN CODE: ~=if(f['80'] != true) {'O';}else {'X';}~ TRANSLATION: If field 80 does not equal TRUE than put O, otherwise put X. TEXT CODE: ~=if(f['80'] != 'English') {'O';}else {'X';}~ TRANSLATION: If field 80 does not equal "English" than put O, otherwise put X. (To make a "checkbox", in Word insert symbol 25A1 (white square) in place of O and 25A0 (black square) in place of X. You can also put in wording in place of O and X. Size the entire code to how large you want the symbol to be. It Amy look long and funny, but it will only show the condition text / symbol.) P.S. I prefer to use !=, but feel free to use ==, or anything else you may need to. ------------------------------ QuickBase Girl ------------------------------33Views3likes4CommentsApp Tokens and Exact Forms
Hi all, I have recently been required to use App Tokens and I am wondering if anyone has had any luck being able to mimic the function of an Exact Form with App Tokens. I know i can create a code page separate from the exact form that functions almost identically, but when i add the App Token into the URL Formula that calls the html page, it still doesn't load the info from the record. I do not have the ability to use a third party add-on like Exact Forms Plus from Juiced so I am just wondering if there is a way to do this at all using just the built in stuff in Quickbase. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions. ------------------------------ Corey McCabe ------------------------------15Views2likes2CommentsExact Forms - Extra Spaces with Rich Text fields
I have a multi line rich text field in an exact form. In the past I used html to manage the spacing which worked fine. When Quickbase changed the formatting on this field I can no longer use html in the field successfully (I can put html in the source). My issue is for every hard return it adds an extra space at the bottom of the text. I used to be able to use </br> and write all the text on one line to eliminate this problem56Views2likes11CommentsExact forms displaying blank page; Nothing changed...
I have had and exact form running just fine for 2 years and now, just recently, it is not working. When I click the link for the print function, it just shows me a blank page. The page it is referencing is still there and I haven't monkeyed with anything related to the form. Help?7Views2likes3CommentsDoes anyone know of a resource allocation/scheduler tool native to Quickbase?
Or buildable within quickbase? I have Projects, Tasks (within Projects), and Resources (assigned to Tasks) and want to assign dates to these Tasks based on availability of my Resource. Is this possible or do I need an add-on? Any help, recommendations, advice would be appreciated! Thanks all!12Views1like2CommentsCreating a web form
I am setting up an app to send an embedded report to the customer for billing. At the bottom of the report I have a click to Approve or Declined. The click to Approve works fine. The click to Decline button is a redirect to a page where they can enter a reason for the Decline. My issue is pulling the rid from the original Decline link so that when the reason is entered and submitted, I update the existing record rather than creating a new record. I used the QB form generator which writes code to add and no option to edit a record. Since the rid is in the link of the button, I need to transfer that info. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated....I am not a coder but always looking to learn.18Views1like3CommentsExact Form Option Using Application Tokens
Has anyone figured out a way to generate documents while using application tokens? We cannot turn this feature off, but have a need to generate customer scope of work and other documents. We currently have some custom PHP running on a separate server to accomplish this, but I'm curious if someone has come up with a different way.3Views1like4Comments
