About building record insert pages

Your application can contain a page that lets users insert new records in a database.

For a tutorial on creating a record insert page, see www.adobe.com/go/learn_dw_webapp.

An insert page consists of two building blocks:

  • An HTML form that lets users enter data

  • An Insert Record server behavior that updates the database

    When a user clicks Submit on a form, the server behavior inserts records in a database table.

    You can add these building blocks in a single operation using the Record Insertion Form data object or you can add them separately using the Dreamweaver form tools and the Server Behaviors panel.

    Note: The insert page can contain only one record-editing server behavior at a time. For example, you cannot add an Update Record or a Delete Record server behavior to the insert page.
