Hans,
The latest version of Fox isn't working for me.
1) First I installed the latest version of Fox, but not Foxedit. My
invalid input redirection problem was unabated:
(a) When the edit form is called, the URL shows "...n=MyPage?
action=foxedit&...".
(b) But when the form encounters invalid input, it displays an error
message and gives the user a chance to correct the error. However, the
URL now shows "...n=MyForm" and nothing else after it. Pressing cancel
leaves the user on the form. Pressing enter causes the form to be the
target of the update.
2) Then I tried installing the latest version of Foxedit as well, to
see if that would fix the problem. That caused my form to simply
return me to the target page when invalid input is submitted. No error
message or chance to correct.
3) I then tried using Foxedit to edit an anchored section (using code
that had previously worked). My old code didn't work now.
4) So I modified the code to make the form explicit:
{[foxedit #to_do_current 'Edit current' form=Edit.EditMessageForm]}
The above still brings up the EditSectionForm - not the form that I
specified.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to redirect the user back

thing I can think of is to use cookies, which I'm trying to avoid.
On the calling page:
{[foxedit label="MyTarget" form=MyForm]}
On my form page I have:
(:fox myform template=MyTemplate target=MyTarget redir={*$FullName}:)
If the user provides invalid input on the form, the redirection after
pressing submit or cancel fails. The user ends up staying on the form
page.
I am failing to see the problem. Perhaps all you need to do is to
change the form to
(:fox myform template=MyTemplate target={$EditTarget} redirect=1 :)
{$EditTarget} is provided by FoxEdit. Any abort from submission
resulting from an invalid input determined by foxcheck will
take you back to the calling page automatically, and not leave you on
the form page. This improvements have been added to FoxEdit with the
last update 2008-03-29.
