Hi,
I've got a cforms search form in my app, which is bound to a java bean called SearchBean.
The SearchBean has a String field for the search text, and a pair of Collections, one for search results and one for "activated" results (bear with me - it's quite a complex search).
Both lists are programatically generated by the code in the SearchBean. The activated list is just styled as text, this works fine. I want the results list to be styled as links, so that a click on a link would submit the id of the result that was clicked. This then gets processed by the search code, which generates a new pair of lists for when the form re-displays itself. Think of it like the user narrowing down the search by clicking possibilities from the results list.
I can go into more detail if necessary, but basically I just need to know:
1) how do I display a repeater widget as a "submit button"-type hyperlink?
2) how do I pick up which link was clicked, either in the flowscript or in the SearchBean when I execute form.save(searchBean)?
Each entry in both collections is an object with an id (int) and a name (String), with just the name displayed on the form. It's the id that I need for the search code, so the link on the form either has to submit the id, or the index of the item in the collection (so I can look it up in the collection and get its id).
Thanks,
Jon
