As most newer code charge users the frustration level keeps growing, take me back to raw code!
anyway my problem.......
i have a table that has a grid that queries a mysql db and displays the result correctly.
if there is no record it displays "no record" i would rather it to display a button that says "Add new information" that links to a form, is this possible easily?

Yes this is easy in CCS. After the grid (outside of the <!-- BEGIN Grid
--><!-- END Grid --> tags in the HTML), add a link for 'Add New
Information', set it to point to your page where your add form is, and
set it's visibility to Dynamic. In your grid's BeforeShow event, add:
global $AddNewInformationLink; //or whatever you called it.
if ($Container->ds->RecordsCount == 0) {
$Container->Visible = false;
$AddNewInformationLink->Visible = true;
}
else {
$AddNewInformationLink->Visible = false;
}
If you want your link to look like a button, use a button style for it.
There are several other ways to do this also, but this is probably the
quickest way from point A to point B.

datadoit, weel put.
Other approach:
using the builder, create a new page, grid + form.
Steal the code from there.

Easier way still - locate the No Record in the HTML view and replace it with
your button link.
