Give users the ability to customize UPDATE button text
It would be great to be able to change the text of the button at the bottom of datapages to better reflect their use or intention. This would be especially helpful when the destination is another datapage or step in the process (for example, rather than having it say "UPDATE", it would be nice to be able to change it to "Select Date" when taking them to a different page to perform another action. Or, more simply, "REGISTER" or "SUBMIT" would also be commonly used by me.
0 votesButton text can be customized to any text you prefer under the Localization object. Edit the Localization objects used in your DataPage and select Button under Forms/Details Pages categories. Under this section, you will be able to update the text of any button in the form.

CONCATENATE for a calculation field.
It would be great if there was a possibility to use an access style Concentration in a calculation or merge field.
'[@field:a]' & ' some text ' & '[@field:b]' & ' more custom text.
There is a way to do this with stuff but it is a bit more complex.
A little icing on the cake would be to make it more dynamic with if statements or case functions.
Thanks for continuing to create better functionality and for taking our suggestions on improvements.

add GLOBAL headers, footers and other sections
Right now, we have to add navigation menus, and header and footer code, to every data page, individually. When changes are made, we have to go through each of these data pages to apply changes.
When an application is as large as ours, this becomes too difficult and time-consuming to maintain, and makes the app prone to errors and inconsistencies.
Additionally, we would like to be able to have these GLOBAL areas controlled via authentication and other criteria. This way, we could achieve different navigation menus for different user types.
We find that this features is definitely a must for…
7 votesThis can be accomplished through an App Parameter of Text 64K that you include in your DataPage header or footer.

Multiple Select - Insert Record
Allow a multi-select box when inserting records into a table on a dataform. Currently we have to use javascript to achieve this, however its very tedious.
Example of how it works: A user is registering for an event. They may want to select multiple sessions to attend at the event.... Session A, Session B and Session C are available.
The user could select Session A and Session C using a multi-select box, complete the registration, and then Submit the form, which will then insert the values into the tables.
Its important to know that this is a common occurrence and…

Use a WYSIWYG Html editor in Html box, head and footer
Use a wysiwyg editor for the html box, header and footer, notification email and also for changing the style sheet. These days most online website, app and email production sites have WYSIWYG editor capabilities, like in WIX or in the email marketing program constant contact. It would make it much faster to put together really great looking pages

Make the chart function more like Excel
The chart functionality could be very powerful, but as it stands it's very limiting. Below are some things that would vastly improve it:
Stacked bar charts
Multiple Axes
Multiple series types (mixed bar/line)
Cumulative charts
Pareto charts

Render Datapages as PDF
Caspio needs to include a PDF output option to bring it up to spped with other applications in this area.
As an Destination option, Caspio should provide a flag that allows a Datapage to display in PDF.
This can be applied with a simple html to pdf conversion tool.Example.
Create a HTML Datapage which receives parameters and styled as a document.
Choose this data page as the destination page (Tick for PDF) and the page/pdf should Open/Display as pdf when called by the browser.127 votesThank you again for this idea.

Allow opening a datapage and a table at the same time in two windows - OR, save work without publishing.
Sometimes I've done a lot of programming developing a new datapage and I need to refer to a table's contents before I proceed. As it is now, I need to close the datapage (resulting in a loss of all work unpublished) in order to open the table and then go back to the datapage to work on it. It seems it would be efficient if I could save my work or rename it while I'm in the file OR could open up a table to review while I'm working on a datapage.
2 votesAbility to open multiple windows or tabs with tables, DataPages or other Bridge objects is now enabled in the new 8.0 release. More information can be found at http://howto.caspio.com/release-notes/caspio-bridge-8-0/

Allow users to format "from" email
Caspio should support formatting of email address in the "from" field of the auto-emails that are sent by datapages.
It seems like I can only enter something like
no-reply@abccompany.comI would like the email address to include the name.. Something like ABCcompany.com no-reply@abccompany.com
This way, "ABCcompany.com" will be displayed in an email client instead of "no-reply" which can be mistaken (or might appear) to be spam.
This is a standard feature implemented in all email clients and I'm surprised that its not yet supported in Caspio.
Please add this support asap.
Thanks!

Calculations within a web form
in our app we would like to automatically do ratios based on formulas of data entered by users.
For instance a when a user inputs their monthly income and household size we can use a look up table to match the resources they have compared to the poverty level for their household size and give them a percentage.
This is easy to accomplish in excel, but a pain in Caspio.
