custom field as an url
my template:
<table class="kalender"><txp:article form="kalender" limit="200" /></table>form “kalender”:
<tr><td><txp:posted format="%d.%m.%Y" /></td>
<td><a href="<txp:custom_field name="url" />"><txp:title /></a></td><td><txp:custom_field name="asukoht" /></td><td><txp:custom_field name="distants" /></td><td><txp:custom_field name="korraldaja" /></td></tr>is it correct code?
anyway, it works until i insert some webpage full url (http://www…) into custom field named ‘url’. then i get error: sorry, the form could not be submitted!
the html output of that form:
<table class="kalender"><tr><td>10.08.2012</td>
<td><a href="">Raplarull</a></td><td>Rapla, EST</td><td>20km, 42km</td><td>EMT</td>
</tr>
</table>?

Default setting of custom fields is to escape html. You should change the setting by adding escape="" in your form.
<txp:custom_field name="url" escape="" />You should also check if the custom field is not empty. If so you end up with an empty <a href="">
This will be something like:
<txp:if_custom_field name="url"><a href="<txp:custom_field name="url" escape="" />"><txp:title /></a><txp:else /><txp:title /></txp:if_custom_field>This may be not related to the popup error you see, but you never know…

…still, ‘sorry, the form could not be submitted!’ :(

Re: custom field as an url
Do you use a plugin that works on custom fields?
Did you check your error.log (or equivalent)?

Re: custom field as an url
Also do you use the mlp plugin?

Re: custom field as an url
I got the same problem than Gallex. My custom_field name called “web” works pefectly with values like “www.foo.com”, “ttp://www.foo.com” but not with “http://www.foo.com. I have tried all combinations of” and “/” and it works great but with “http://”, so in apperance the text “http://” blocks the article saving (perhaps a security issue of a plugin?)

If that is the case you could try
<txp:if_custom_field name="url">
<a href="http://<txp:custom_field name="url" escape="" />"><txp:title /></a><txp:else /><txp:title /></txp:if_custom_field>In this way all you will need to add is the rest of the url.
I use a custom field in a very similar way without any problems. I’m wondering if milosevic’s theory is right for Alesh. I would disable all plugins and see if the field can be saved.

Re: custom field as an url
Gallex, can you capture the network traffic with Firebug or something similar when you click “Save” and receive the notorius “Sorry, the form could not be submitted. Please try again later.” message?
I am interested in your server’s response. It usually looks something like this:
;
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#messagepane").html("<span id=\"message\" class=\"success\">.Offline
