An update page has three building blocks:
You can add the final two building blocks of an update page in a single operation using the Record Update Form application object. The application object adds both an HTML form and an Update Record server behavior to the page.
Before you can use the application object, your web application must be able to identify the record to update, and your update page must be able to retrieve it. See Searching for the record to update (ASP.NET), Opening the update page and passing the record ID (ASP.NET), and Retrieving the record to update (ASP.NET).
After the application object places the building blocks on the page, you can use the Dreamweaver design tools to customize the form to your liking, or the Server Behaviors panel to edit the Update Record server behavior.
NOTE |
|
The update page can contain only one record-editing server behavior at a time. For example, you cannot add an Insert Record or a Delete Record server behavior to the update page. |
The Record Update Form dialog box appears.
For instructions, see Setting the Record Update Form dialog box options (ASP.NET).
The application object adds both an HTML form and an Update Record server behavior to your page. The form objects are laid out in a basic table, which you can customize using the Dreamweaver page design tools. Make sure all the form objects remain within the forms boundaries.
To edit the server behavior, open the Server Behaviors panel (Window > Server Behaviors) and double-click the Update Record behavior.
