Hello..
I'm trying to get a form configured to work properly.  Here's the setup:

Indictment Date - Date: Required, Display on List; Users enter the indictment date here
Case Name - Text: Required, Display on List, Searchable; Users enter the case name here
Case - Text: Required; Users enter the case number here
CaseURL - URL: setup with a default location to an external site URL ("...ViewCase.asp?CaseIn=")
Case Number - Calculated Column: '<a target="_blank" href="" + CaseURL_UDT_URL +  Case + "">' + Case + ' </a>'; Display on List, Searchable

After entering information, all appears good.  I see the Indictment Date, Case Name and the Case; Case is a hyperlink in the table listing.

But, the URL for the Case points to the page which the Form and List module is on; Indictments.aspx.  It doesn't appear to be combining the two fields together as I would hope; e.g. "...ViewCase.asp?CaseIn=09E111214".  When I click on the link, it opens it in a new window, just not to the correct URL.

What am I missing to get this working properly?  Thanks.. -Jeff

I even tried configuring a calculated column using an expression as below, but for the link it's creating, its still pointing to the .aspx page which the F&L is part of; e.g.  http://%dnnwebsite%/pressreleases.aspx.  It opens it in a new window as well which is 50% correct.

Why isn't this accepting this in the expression field to create the URL?

I want it to create the following link:  http://%externalwebsiteurl%/subfolder/Docket/ViewCase.asp?CaseIn=09E111214

Calculated Column Expression:
'<a target="_blank" href=""http://%externalwebsiteurl%/subfolder/Docket/ViewCase.asp?CaseIn='+ Case +'"">' + Case + '</a>'

OK.. Now this is VERY interesting..

Looking at the table within Firebug, this is what is being reported as the URL being generated by F&L..

<a ViewCase.asp?casein="09E111214&quot;&quot;" Docket="" %subfolder1%="" %externalURL%="" http:="" href="" target="_blank">09E111214</a>

What the heck??!

Ok.. I figured it out; too many double-quotes.  Below is the final expression which works correctly:

'<a href="http://%externalwebsiteurl%/subfolder/Docket/ViewCase.asp?CaseIn='+ Case +'" target="_blank" >' + Case + '</a>'
