You must do your saves inline (via startProcess tied to a button), alternatively, you can use Record Actions, but they need to be in Dialog mode.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For #2 Stems from the fact that we cannot create urls other than for Sites or Record views. There&amp;#39;s no way to point a user to a secondary page with a URL.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
