Hi, First, I have to say that your forum is a great service and I am enjoying it very much and learning a lot of new things.. keep up the good work...
Now...I have read on your forum other postings related to this issue including http://www.drizzle.com/~hall/dbmod/short.html, which is great however, as I understand it, you can have only one line per record which when you click on takes you to the more detailed listing
I am trying to set up a matchmaker site where the database is very detailed & consists of 45 fields per record - what I would like to achieve(that's if it is all possible) to have a short display say of approx 4-5 fields per record.. which would give the essential information about a person for a viewer to decide whether he/she would like to know more about that person or skip to the next one - In my case a one line only would not be enough of information to decide to explore the record further or not .. Is there a way, I can do this, i.e. have a short form of 3-4 fields per record, when you click on a field there, it takes you to the 45 field record for that person...
If that can be done.. would you be able to give me the code.. I sure hope it would.. thank you very much for all your help
