Datapage columns customisation

[MyNameIsSean]

Hi,

I have a datapage that has another datapage embedded, within a single column layout.

However I want to instead, embed it on the side, such that I can see both datapages side by side.

Is this possible to do without adding another datapage?

Also, i have multiple sections within the parent datapage so I cannot use a 2 column section to resolve this, unless I can add a section into another section (as a subsection).

Thanks in advance.

You may try deploying data pages in table layout on  your hosting webpage. E.g.:

 <table>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
 
   	deploy code of the first datapage

</td>

<td valign="top">

deploy code of the second datapage

</td>

</tr>

</table>

Hi Mathilda,

Thank you for the suggestion but unfortunately that is not what I was looking for.

I have found a possible solution:

 

1) In the Header, I have the following:

<table><td><div> //this is the start of the left section

 

2) I have added a html block in the middle with the following:

</div></td></table><td><div><table> //this is the start of the right section

 

3) And in the footer:

</table></div></td>

 

The idea is to house the fields in 2 table columns, then each in a DIV, to create 2 columns independent on each other's formatting.

It worked, however there is another problem:

 

The conditional collapsible sections do not work on the right section, and I am also unable to call the elements in it by their IDs:

document.getElementById("EditRecordFIELDNAME") does not work, and creating DIVs to house multiple fields and hiding the DIVs do not work either.

 

I hope you understand what I am trying to do here.

 

Thanks in advance.
