I would suggest not routing to edit via form. To do so, you have to
set a session variable that is the page guid. Once you do that, RedDot
gets a little confused if you try to edit elements on the existing
page (not the page you edited via form) and you could cause some
issues. Of course, if you manage it correctly, it should be fine. Here
is what I used:
I had an ASP file created with the following that just opens up a
window for editing via form.
Session("EditPageGuid") = Request("editpageguid")
%>
<script>
window.open('/CMS/ioRDLevel1.asp?
Action=GetElementsPageFormData&CalledFromRedDot=1&DummyRefreshTime=1226367506390',
'LaunchViaForm', 'width=650,height=550');
</script>
<%
To set the page guid, I had this in my content class (the page from
which I wanted to launch edit via form without going to the following
page).
<a href="javascript:window.open('/CMS/Plugins/ExecuteRQL.asp?
action=LaunchViaForm&editpageguid=<%info_pageguid%>', 'LaunchViaForm',
'width=650,height=550');void(0);">[edit via form]</a>
Hope that helps!
