Changing the link of a relate field

[raja_netha]

HI

I created a field in CASES module in which data type is RELATE which connects to CONTACTS module.
The problem is, when we click, it opens pop-up of contact page.
What i need is, It has to open a pop up of CONTACTS module(The same URL of contacts module).

We get a doubt that whats the difference between these two.....there it is.....In pop up, when we search we cannot export the fields to CSV, where as if it redirects to same URL of contacts page where we can export to CSV.

Search fields and list view is different for both.....I can adjust in that....


Suggestions please...

Thanks....

Do you need to relate to contact or not then? If you just need simple popup to show contacts, then create any textfield and populate it in logichook with a href link to open i popup.

I don't understand why would you open contacts module from other module and then do export from that popup? Doesn't make sense...

Thanks for the reply...

I have a separate module in which it is one field....there are other fields also...

You are right Eitrix...but in popup we cant export to excel. Sorry to say the requirement is like that....I too told them that just go contacts page and take export....but they are saying to put a link to that of same contacts module(They are thinking that it is just copy and paste) but we know how it will be....

HELP me...

Please can you help me in the following topic also...

The most easiest solution would be to insert button on popup that will contain javascript to read selected records and then submit it to custom function that will process that and fire an export function.
