Here's what I used on a quick and dirty project for a non-profit that
needed web access to contact list for fund raising on an interim basis.
After selecting some of all the contacts, when they go to the record
detail page (down a level from the record list), I display links to
first/previous/next/last. This let's user go navigate record by record
through the detail, and then have the record id current for updates.
First, at the top of the recordList HTML:
<@ASSIGN NAME="myrecordlist" SCOPE=USER VALUE=<@VAR NAME=resultset[*,2]>>
Note that column 2 contained the unique contact ID (key).
Then within the recordDetail HTML:
<@ASSIGN NAME="first" VALUE=<@VAR SCOPE=USER NAME=myrecordlist[1,1]>>
<@ASSIGN NAME="last" VALUE=<@VAR SCOPE=USER NAME=myrecordlist[<@NUMROWS
ARRAY=myrecordlist SCOPE=USER>,1]>>
<a href="<@APPFILE>?_function=<@ARG _function>&Layout_0_uid1=<@VAR
NAME=first>">First</a><br>
<@IF EXPR="<@NUMROWS ARRAY=myrecordlist SCOPE=USER> > 2">
<@ASSIGN NAME=current VALUE=<@ARG Layout_0_uid1>>
<@IF EXPR="(<@VAR NAME=first>) = (<@VAR
NAME=current>)">
<@ASSIGN NAME=previous VALUE=<@VAR NAME=first>>
<@ASSIGN NAME=next VALUE=<@VAR SCOPE=USER
NAME=myrecordlist[2,1]>>
<@ELSEIF EXPR="(<@VAR NAME=last>) = (<@VAR
NAME=current>)">
<@ASSIGN NAME=next VALUE=<@VAR NAME=last>>
<@ASSIGN NAME=previous VALUE=<@VAR SCOPE=USER
NAME=myrecordlist[<@CALC EXPR="<@NUMROWS ARRAY=myrecordlist
SCOPE=USER>-1">,1]>>
<@ELSE>
<@FOR STOP="<@NUMROWS ARRAY=myrecordlist
SCOPE=USER>">
<@ASSIGN NAME=next VALUE=<@VAR
SCOPE=USER NAME=myrecordlist[<@CALC
EXPR="<@CURROW>+1">,1]>>
<@ASSIGN NAME=previous VALUE=<@VAR
SCOPE=USER
NAME=myrecordlist[<@CALC EXPR="<@CURROW>-1">,1]>>
<@IF EXPR="(<@VAR NAME=current>) =
(<@VAR SCOPE=USER
NAME=myrecordlist[<@CALC EXPR="<@CURROW>">,1]>)"><@BREAK></@IF>
</@FOR>
</@IF>
<a href="<@APPFILE>?_function=<@ARG _function>&Layout_0_uid1=<@VAR
NAME=previous>">Previous</a><br>
<a href="<@APPFILE>?_function=<@ARG _function>&Layout_0_uid1=<@VAR
NAME=next>">Next</a><br>
<@ELSE>
</@IF>
<a href="<@APPFILE>?_function=<@ARG _function>&Layout_0_uid1=<@VAR
NAME=last>">Last</a>
Note that HTML argument Layout_0_uid1 (which shows it to be filemaker
related) is passed back to the current application file to generate the
next desired record in the record list.
