I have created a Record form with File Upoad component in it, called attachment . I have got this Record form working fine storing the uploaded files into the storage folder.
I have also created a List (grid) form on the same table. I changed attachment component from label to link. I want to display the file name of the attachment in that grid which is linked to the attachment. Once it is clicked I want it to display the actual attachment from that storage folder. I tried to use Href Source to accomplish it, but no luck. Basically I want it to build a link like: http://localhost/storage_folder/file_name.pdf
I appreciate your help.

to nsukho...
this is what u r trying to do...
Your trying to upload a picture on maintenance page
then on your list page you want to be able to click on the image link displayed
and open in new window or same window
i dont know if this will help you, but this is what i did..
when using file upload, (linux path)
setup like this....
Quote :
TEMPORARY FOLDER: tmp/
FILE FOLDER: upload/
and add slash at the end, not beginning.
make sure you set permissions of both the server folders to chmod 777
now thats the upload part, now comes the displaying the image....
change the label to link (or image link) then
Quote :
HREF TYPE: DataSource Parameter
HREF SOURCE: cust_file_upload1 // (whatever your fileUpload Name is)
then view the HTML source, you will see something like this...
<td><a href="{cust_file_upload1_Src}"
and ADD this... upload/ ( or whatever YOUR upload folder is.. ) like the code below.
<td><a href="upload/{cust_file_upload1_Src}"
i also added
target="_blank"
to open in NEW window...
so your final link will look like this....
http://www.someurl.com/upload/201212052237410.Sample.pdf
ALSO...
if you only want to show the JUST the filename, ( Sample.pdf ) instead of ( 201212052237410.Sample.pdf )
on the the file upload component add a Before Show -> Add Action -> Get Original Filename.
Hope this helps you or Someone else.....
