Being a newbie, I’ve spent the last 4 hours trying to move slider input data from a subpage to index page. I’m clueless. And worn down. And broken. “He slid into an early grave” will be on my tombstone. Anyways, here is my boggle:
Index page shows a table that is supposed to show a name resulting from calculation involving the slider number (which has to be stored permanently too, unless changed by user) from the page NewRules.
I’m able to get the slider input in integral form within the NewRules page, but how do I make the app save this as permanent data… and how do I make my Index table grab data from NewRules? :((
I didn’t really understand the question. But you can pass data around between any pages either through saving the values to the database, or passing them as URL parameters. See below demo to pass them by saving to the database. The first page sets slider values, and the second page shows them in an ascending order:
If this is what you need, you can check the editor pages here: Slider set and Slider view.
I don’t know if this gets me any closer… :(. I’m having a hard time storing the collection of sliders in each of the 3 sliders as a list of numbers that may be loaded back into the sliders on startup (newrules). And pooling the data with the string Name and some ID in case of several persons with the same name.
The user is supposed to rate general importance of traits under newrules, and rate each new person according to the same list of traits. The traits/sliders are different in short term/long term/family etc relationships. Hence, I made the downlist show the appropriate set of sliders in a floatinggroup. Inside each floatinggroup I have the sliders. Probably need to put them in a repeating group or something? But The Newperson will also contain a “person name” and a unique ID. I’m clueless. I made a mysql server and some banale javascript in 2005 and haven’t programmed since:').
