I have a form based on a table which includes foreign fields. By default,
the foreign fields are displayed as the name from the foreign table
as expected.
I want to have an image displayed rather than the name from the foreign
table.
Not having used 'format' before, I changed the format of the foreign table
to:
format="xyz"
As expected, every row now displayed "xyz". I then changed to:
format=URL('static','images/red.jpg')
and again, as expected, the URL string appears in every row. Then I did:
format=IMG(_src=URL('static','images/red.jpg'))
and now no foreign key lookup seems to occur at all: I just get the id
value showing in the table.
I have two questions:
Why does that happen and
How can I display an image for a foreign key value?
Thanks for pointers or help!
