Use SPServices.SPRedirectWithID in a custom new form

Question

Do you know if it is possible to use SPServices.SPRedirectWithID in a custom new form.

Thanks, Best regards, David

UPDATE (DETAILS):

I would like to use it to redirect the user from NewForm_cst.aspx (customized version of the new form) to the EditForm.aspx.

In newform_cst i use a dataformwebpart instead of the standard listformwebpart.

In the documentation website, one user states the following:

I just discovered something about SPRedirectWithID that I thought others might find useful.

I've got a list with a custom new item form, and it turns out that the SPRedirectWithID function will not work if there is not already a redirect statement applied to the 'save' button. The function works perfectly with a standard form, but it will fail if the "save" button only performs a commit - it must also have a redirect action applied. I dont' know if I just missed this in your setup, but it might be important for those of us who are using custom forms."

I guess this is my case. If think the question is how to add a redirect action and a redirect statement.

Answer 1

Your button will have a redirect if the form action takes the user to another page on commit, which is the normal case.

My suggestion is that you just try it and see if it works. If you have issues, post to the SPServices Discussions. (While I'm active here, I'll definitely see a thread on the SPServices site.) SPRedirectWithID, while not a lot if code, was a hairy function to write. I can't really cover all possible variations, of course, but it ought to work for you.
