Adding new rows on page 1

[Albert3162]

Hello,

may be somebody done with this:
I need to be able to add a new row to a table on page, when the user clicks an 'add' button. The new row will have the same fields as the first row, but not going to database until user submit this page

Thanks
Albert

you'll have to pass the current number of rows to run a loop. then you'll have to do some checks in the form field so populate a value.

<cfif isdefined("form.submit")>
  do database stuff
</cfif>
<cfparam name = "url.rowCount" default = "1">
<form action="thispage.cfm?rowCount=<cfoutput>#evaluate(url.rowCount + 1)#</cfoutput>>
  <table>
    <cfoutput>
    <cfloop from = "1" to = "url.rowCount" index = "thisRow">
      <tr>
        <td>
          <input type = "text" name = "myFormField#thisRow#" value = "<cfif isdefined("form.myFormField#thisRow#")>#evaluate("myFormField"&thisrow)#</cfif>">
        </td>
      </tr>
    </cfloop>
  </table>
<input type = "submit" value = "submit" name = "submit"> <input type = "submit" value = "add row" name = "addrow">
</form>

if you click add row it will submit the page but since the actual submit button isn't defined it wont add to the db. the form action passes the next row number. each form text field checks to see if there are existing values to repopulate the value.

If you don't ask the right questions, you don't get the right answers. A question asked in the right way often points to its own answer. Asking questions is the ABC of diagnosis. Only the inquiring mind solves problems.
