Power Pages

Unable to Redirect Form

Posted on by Bassey

Hello everyone

I am a noob to Power Pages.

I have a Power Pages website I created without a web template.

I have a page with a basic form that the fields on it are read, there is also a button (Update KYC).

When the button is clicked on, I want it to redirect to open the edit form.

I tried to add the javascript below:

<script>

document.getElementById('updateContactButton').onclick = function(event) {

event.preventDefault();

var urlParams = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);

var recordId = urlParams.get('id');

var editFormUrl = '/editcontact/?id=' + recordId;

window.location.href = editFormUrl;

};

</script>

but it does not pick the ID of the record, hence I get the message that the record cannot be found.

I'll appreciate any help I can get on this.

Hi, a couple things to check

can you pop-up as an alert the recordId variable to see if there is any value?

maybe do the same for urlsParams or add to the console so you can troubleshoot

so you have a read-only form, and then redirect to the edit version on the click of a button is that it? one option here is:

have the form as Edit Form

apply JS on page load that will change all fields to read-only

on the click of the Edit button

re-apply JS that will change all fields to editable

this way you wouldn't need to re-load the entire page

Thanks @oliver.rodrigues

Yes, I have and I can see the ID of the record from the console.

Let me try the second option of disabling the fields on load of the page and enabling after the button is clicked on.

Please if you have an idea of how to go about it with javascript, I would appreciate it.
