Title: Howdy

I’m new to dbforms and would like some advice on the “best” way to handle a multiple screen registration form

 

These are the steps I need to accomplish

 

1)       Present a Student registration form, with name, age, etc… Student also needs to enter his National ID Number

2)       Compute a student_id based on the National Id and other criteria, this student_id value is part of the ‘student’ table.

3)       Goto screen 2, ‘parent’ input screen. This table has student_id as a foreign key. The field should be seeded with the correct value and not be visible.

 

My questions are

1 whats the best way to handle #2 ?, a preInsert intererceptor ?, or some jsp on the page that catches the ‘commit’ action (how ??)

2 how Do I pre-populate form #2 with some values from form #1.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Neal Katz
