Hi Runners,
i have created a table "communications" which enables the employees to send internal messages.

i'd like to create a button on the Email_view page which opens "reply_add.php"page and writes the following values by default:
"From" field in the original messege should be written in "To" field on reply page

"Subject" field in the original message should be written in "Subject" field on reply page
that will save time for the employees to reply a message
please see the screenhot for a better explaination
thanks for your help !!

Hi,
to create button use custom event on the Visual Editor tab. Here is a sample:

if (@$_REQUEST["MsgID"])

echo "<input type=button class=button value=\"Reply\" onclick=\"window.location.href='replay_add.php?messid=".$_REQUEST["MsgID"]."';\">";


Then check $_REQUEST["messid"] value in the Add page: Before process event, select Fromand Subjectvalues based on this ID and save it in the session variables. Use these session variables as default values on the "Edit as" settings dialog on the Visual Editor tab.
