Master/Detail and retrun page (v2022)

[gargiulo]

Hi,

• i have a table master A and several detail tables linked to A e.g. B C D E
• when i select Master/Detail Vew i land in Master detail page
• at the top i have the record of master
• at the bottom i have a series of tab related to the details tables B C D E and focus is on the table B
• suppose i go in table E and i edit or add a record in table E
• when inserted or updated the page come back to focus on table B

what i look for is remain in table E without refreshing in table B

do you have some indication to solve it

thanks

You may, for example,

1. Use Page_Load server event of the Add/Edit page of Table E to save the current detail table name in a session variable,
2. Use Page_Render server event of the View page of Table A to check your session variable and set the current table, e.g. $this->DetailPages["TableE"]->Active = true;, then clear the session variable.

Hi Arbei,

i did but it refresh always in table B.
let me explain what i did, perhaps something went wrong :

• in Server event- Login Page - Page Load i clear my variable (otherwise when i invoked Master Detail View from table A i received an error due to the key my_tab was undefined)

  $_SESSION["my_tab"]="";

• in Page_Load server event of the Add/Edit/Delete page of Table E i did

  $_SESSION["my_tab"]= CurrentDetailTable();

• In Page_Render server event of the View page of Table A

if ($_SESSION['my_tab'] !="") {

$this->DetailPage[$_SESSION['my_tab']]->Active = true;
}

$_SESSION['my_tab']="";

something is wrong but i don't know what, thanks for your help.

CurrentDetailTable() there is the current detail table of Table E, so it is wrong. During development, you should check the value by, for example, var_dump() first.

You should save "Table E" (replace it with the real table variable name of table E) directly.

Thnaks for suggestions that i applied but receiving error.
Based on what you said :

You should save "Table E" (replace it with the real table variable name of table E) directly

• i modify my code in table E server event Add/Edit/Delete Page Load

$_SESSION["my_tab"]= "parrservizi";

• in server event of Table A Page Render :

  if ($_SESSION['my_tab'] !="" ) {
  
  $this->DetailPage["parrservizi"]->Active = true;
  }
  
  $_SESSION['my_tab']="";

  i know this isn't correct but it was just to force table E true

but..... i received the error

Notice: Indirect modification of overloaded property PHPMaker2022\CARITAS\ParrocchieView::$DetailPage has no effect in C:\xampp\htdocs\Caritas\models\ParrocchieView.php on line 1847

there is something still wrong

[arbei]

It should be $this->DetailPages.
