I've nearly finished creating my ordering system. One item on the order_add page is a "lookup wizard" that displays concat() info, but returns the key for the selected item (ex. "dropdown_key"). However, when viewed on the order_list page, the cell for "dropdown_key" displays the concat() data, instead of the "dropdown_key". I've also noticed that if the concat() information that is shown in that cell is too long, there is a "More" link that shows up and displays a pop-up window with the full concat() string. (In the database, everything is normal and the "dropdown_key" is stored, so I'm not worried about anything there.)
What I'd like to know is this: can I force that cell on the order_list page to display only the "dropdown_key", yet at the same time give it the attributes of the "More" link, so that the key could be clicked on, and the full concat() info for the table it relates to would pop up in another small window?
I don't believe this would be too difficult, and it would probably be extremely useful for many people. I'll continue looking for how to do it in the meantime...
