tabs and Back buttons

Post by tkilshaw »

I have a form with a number of tabs.

I invoke that form using a process. Each tabbed form section has its own Create and Back buttons.

From the user's point of view, if they start on the form's first tab section, then click on one of the tabs, clicking the Back button should take them back to the form's first tab section. Instead it exits the form.

Any chance that Aware could support the behaviour that users will expect?

thanks,

Terry

Terry,

By design the Back button brings the user to the previous logical page, not to another section of the same form. If the user wants to go to a different section he can just click the desired tab on the form. If, on the other hand, the user wants to go back to where he came from (like a query results page) he can click the Back button. If the behaviour of the button were different there would be no easy way for the user to get to the previous page.
