Master Detail Pages

I'm studing different possibilities for a Master Detail Page Approach:

How can we have a Master Detail page in the SAME page?

IF and only if, the last solution cannot be done, we can have the Detail Page in a popup. But when we close the popup without (after editing the details) how can we refresh the parent window, so the new data can be updated?

Is there a way to make a Master Detail in the same page using show/hide properties, so when the user clicks on show more details the details will appear. (using spry maybe?)

Thanks in advance

You apply a Go to Detail Page serverbehavior to the content from the Master
(list) recordset, then you filter the second recordset with the parameter
from the Go to Detail Page serverbehavior, and apply a "Show if recordset
not empty" to the Detail content

No it doesn't, but you can do master/Detail with Spry

You could, but again you don't have to,

Sure you can, sorry I missed the part "IF and only if, the last solution
cannot be done" and answered anyway.

Thanks.
You are giving me hope. :)

But the link that you have give me talks only in Datasets. I don't have any.

Where can I found similar information regarding Recordsets? And the work between them?

I have know an extension that translates a Recorset into XML, and HAND ways to do this. But I don't want to translate to XML. I only want to use spry effects (like show hide) to "play" with my dynamic information bring by the recorset.

I.E. Spry Effects inside a repeat region. Problem: I get only the first record of the repeat region to work.

So I think, for now, that they are not friends. And I have no idea if I can make them friends.

Thanks for your time once again, hope you can clarify something here.

Can you explain a little more please, what happens next?

>Sure, look at this document:
>Spry basic master and detail region overview and structure

But that does not imply that I should leave my Recorset and move to a Spry Data set? And that not implys also that I need to have a filter / search also using Spry components?
Cas I have a traditional recorset but I only want to apply a show/hide with some possible effects from Spry...

Thanks in advance again, ;)

Using 2 recordsets, one for the master (all records), one for the detail (1
record)

Haven't used that method for years (hate popups), not sure if it still works
in current browsers;
with javascript you can access the "opener" of the window

window.opener.location.reload(true);

Sure, look at this document:
