I have tried to try a simpler way but I can still not get it
to work. Now instead of taking the Order Status values from another
table I have simply populated the OrderStatus field in the Order
table with the Order Status'.
However the table still refuses to update. I have tried
following tutorials such as this one:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/view...nalId=tn_15867
but this does not work for me. I can update simple items like the
house number of the address of an order but not the order status.
Here is the code for the update page:
I'm not sure which bit of the code you need so i've c+p
everything bar the basic html stuff.
