checking for users' update

[henry0]

In a CMS with multi users input
I am looking for a way to be immediately aware of table update

I can link an email with "submit"
but a form can be submitted without updates so the system is not perfect!

I looked around but cannot find my answer

Thanks

Henry

I think you may have your answer right there, henry0. Why not check to see if the value changed, if it did, update and email, if not, ... do nothing.

You could have a common page where successful inserts/updates are confirmed back to the user and have this page fires off the email, not the form.

This method will handle failed inserts/updates correctly.

Thank you, not the first time I keep forgetting about checking if value changed

I will tattoo it on my forehead!
