# Format for "update"

 * I have a form that has a search option to narrow the list of records and then
   a select (rlink) to edit the selected record. Everything works but I am getting
   a non-fatal error message on the screen that I would like to eliminate. I am 
   thinking it is due to my misunderstanding the Forms format. Any suggestions?
 * code:
    [abase form=”1,search” table=”Detail” columns=”ClassYear!’100′,FirstName,
   LastName,MaidenName$Search” elements=”ClassYear,FirstName,LastName,MaidenName”]
 * [abase table=”Detail” limit=200 columns=”ClassYear!’100′,FirstName,LastName,MaidenName,
   City,State,Country” ORDER=”ClassYear, LastName,FirstName” rlink=”FirstName” ack
   =”green”]
 * [abase form=”1,update” table=”Detail” elements=”FirstName,LastName,MaidenName,
   ClassYear,City,State,Country,Email,Memo” fields=”FirstName,LastName,MaidenName,
   ClassYear,City,State,Country,Email,Memo$Update Detail” ack=”brown” echo=”blue”]
 * Error Message:
    #3. #4. [abase form=”"1,update"” table=”"Detail"” elements=”"
   FirstName,LastName,MaidenName,ClassYear,City,State,Country,Email,Memo"” fields
   =”"FirstName,LastName,MaidenName,ClassYear,City,State,Country,Email,Memo$Update”
   ack=”"brown"” echo=”"blue"”] Non-Fatal Error (1203) Attribute form=””1,update””
   is incorrect. Use form=”,search” or form=”,input” or form=”,update”., Table “
   Detail” does not exist. Valid table names in roster2014: Countries, Detail, States.

 * Looks like you have two sets of double quotes:
 * `form=""1,update"" table=""Detail""` should be `form="1,update" table="Detail"`
 * check all the fields.

 * I agree that that is what the error message implies but I have checked the code
   and there is only one quote. If I remove it I get other error messages. Thus 
   my confusion. I was guessing it had something to do with multiple forms on the
   same page but have tried various combinations with no luck.

 * Hello,
    The end of your code is not correct, try …..echo=”blue” /]

 * On WP 3.8.1, ABASE 2.2.1
 * I am getting the same non-fatal errors, with the same extra quote marks inserted
   by the plugin that are NOT in my shortcode, and appear to be causing ABASE parsing
   errors. The update form fields are displayed, but there is no Submit/Update button.
   This problem only occurs for shortcodes with form and its parameters.
 * Tried moving the update form to a different page (url specified in rlink parameter
   on main table page) and that did not help.
 * Tried adding slash at end of the shortcode. That makes no difference, and is 
   not included anywhere in the shortcode syntax examples in the FAQs.

 * #1. [abase table=”bank” columns=”BankName,TodayRate,LacRate” rlink=”BankName”
   echo=”blue”]
 * why those line’s are displayed when i want to update some data ??
