I need to view data with expanded sub-data in a continuous view. I have a query with subdatasheets that does the job, except it keeps asking to save changes to layout.
My query is not in a form. I'm just opening and closing the query, without making any changes. But if the "Subdatasheet Expanded" property is set to Yes it always asks if I want to save changes to the layout. If I change the property to NO, it doesn't ask.
Is there any way I can get the query to expand all subdatasheets without asking to save changes to layout?
I would prefer to place the query in a form, but I can't find a way to get expanded subdatasheets that works with continuous forms layout.
I know I could use a subform showing the subdatasheet, but then I can't get continuous forms, and that is an essential requirement.
Any help/advice appreciated.

We are using an older character based version of QAD's MFG/PRO running on Progress version 10.1. On one of the shipping tables, I've to create a browse that will display all records in a scrollable browse (sort of infinite scroll browse). It will display first 10 records initially, but user will be able to scroll up or down in the browse, which should load previous or next record (up or down arrow key).
I was wondering how something like this can be achieved. Preloading a temp-table with millions of records doesn't seem like a good idea, querying the database for every up or down arrow key press sounds equally bad. Does DEFINE BROWSE provides a way to achieve this? Is there a way to code lazy loading type scenario?
Also, how the scenario would change if instead of a browse showing data from a single table, will combine data from multiple tables?
Any help/pointers in this regard will be helpful. Also, if some best practices can be shared.
You can look at the END and OFF-END events in the browse widget. This will alert you when the user wants to scroll forward/backward. The query associated with the browse also has an OFF-END event that you could look into using for this.

I am fairly new to Wordpress. I am writing a real estate site, and I want to have a Service Area page that displays the Counties that we serve in various states. So what I want to happen is to have a dropdown list where a user can select a state, and based on the state that they select, a text area will display that counties that we service in that state.
So basically, I want to store text content in the form of counties that will be displayed based on the conditions of a dropdown list.
I have no idea where to start. Is there a plugin that works for this kind of situation such as a form plugin that can store content, or am I going to have to write custom PHP/Javascript to make something like this happen. I am asking because this seems like a common scenario on websites, I just don't know where to look.
Thanks for any suggestions that you may have!!
So what I ended up doing was creating a select box in html that when a change happened on the list, a javascript function was called that changed the visibility of a text area and also set the value of its content to display all the counties that I needed. Ended up being much more simple than I expected. No PHP functions and short code necessary.
Is there any option to completely control a Search module with a Summary view? I am struggling to get there. I have the following settings so far:
In admin I created an Index called PublicSearch with a number of fields.
I am getting a search result which is a mixture of two content parts - Question and Expert
I have a Part view to be used in search result for Experts called ExpertSummary.cshtml. The view only contains the following elements now:
#model dynamic
<p>Expert Summary</p>
When the search result is coming I only expect the "Expert Summary" to be visible in Expert region of the Search but I am getting an additional "body" section (truncated to X characters). It seems to me because "body" is selected as a field when I created the Index it is coming up.
Each Expert record has an image of expert which is coming up in the search result and When I take out <Place Fields_MediaPicker="Content:1" /> from Placement.info it disappears, which is fine.
But I want this summary to be completely controllable in ExpertSummary.cshtml - like a two column layout where the left col will hold the expert image and the right one will hold a brief description along with some other info - but everything would be in the View - should not come from Orchard search module as defaults.
In short I want Orchard's Index and Search modules to be functional and working like it is now but the layout and information I want to control completely using custom HTML in Parts/ExpertSummary.cshtml view.
Is this at all possible? If yes, how?
Please suggest. I am completely lost my way in Orchard framework!
I'm not completely sure I understand your question... Orchards search returns a Summary view by default. So you need to control the layout of your summary. Use shape tracing to create a new alternate to change the layout of the summary view. So ExpertSummary won't control the entire layout, it will just control the Expert part. Then use placement to decide what to display. http://docs.orchardproject.net/Documentation/Understanding-placement-info
Also, tagging questions with "orchardcms" will be more useful than "orchardcms-1.7".
I have a column in my database that stores images that are links, when i populate them in a gridview on my asp.net page I want it to display the image as a link but when i did it i just get the text below.
<img src="http://www.url.com/url/url/url/url.jpg">
My goal is to have a list of the images and when a user clicks the image they will go to another page. This is a start of my page, and i was attempting to use a gridview but now I am not sure what to do
Don't save markup
Instead just save a URL. In your case two of them since one points to *.html and the other to *.jpg. Or just without extensions if they're always the same except for the extensions. This way you can easily change your markup later and still use the same data from the DB.
But apart from this fact of not saving non-data in DB you could at least provide some relevant code you're using. We'd much easier tell you where you're doing it wrong.
Using GridView
The problem you're having are column templates. Check this link out and see how you can customize the display of a particular column in a GridView. Essentially you will have to provide your own template and do whatever you please with your DB data.
This is my first time using Views in Drupal and am finding that no matter what I do, I can't seem to get my output to sort on any field at all.
I'm using the views_bonus_pack to create xml output, but not sure if that matters.
I've tried the post date field, the node Id field, the node title field, and... the output is always the same.
Any ideas?
[Update, here are screenshots of what I'm working with]

And, here's the resulting XML

The sort criteria are listed to the right side.

If you changed the sort criteria trying to get differently sorted data without to obtain any difference, then there are just two possibilities:
The sort criteria are not used for feeds; it's rather improbable.
The style plugin module has an issue, and it's not working as it should.
If Views Bonus Pack is implementing a style, each style has its own settings that change the output produced by the style. When you click on the wheel close the style name, you would see some settings fields for that purpose.
