Item ID in display and edit forms

Hi Chistophe,
I’ve tried this mod on WSS3.0, however it is only displaying a 01 for all the issues, regardless of their ID. Is there something I need to to do differently to make it work on this version?

Implemented exactly as directed, worked perfectly. Thanks much!!!

Sorry, for the typos.

I was wandering if you help me with the problem I stucked on for long time now. Here it is:

The idea is to have an emal button, next to a close button, on the dispform.aspx page. When the email button get clicked, it opens up outlook, and attach the list item url with its specific ID in the subject field of outlook. Then the user just simply send the data to his or her recipient. How do I accomplish this?

Please help. Thank you!

thanks for your post. I tested this code in a test area and all worked perfectly. When I implemented in a production area, things went very wrong. Adding the CEWP to the display form worked well. When I added to the editform.aspx, clicking on the link to edit the form, took me back to the list – not the editform.aspx. I followed the instructions in this link and am now able to get to the editform.aspx, although once a user makes changes, they get the following error when trying to commit:

Failed to get value of the “Attachments” column from the “Attachments” field type control. See details in log. Exception message: Guid should contain 32 digits with 4 dashes (xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx)..

At a loss. Working at this since 10 a.m…

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I love this, so neat! Thank you for sharing Chris

Experts please help!

I was just about to create the same thing… and then did a quick google search and your solution pop’d up.

Thanks for publishing this! It saved me an hour or two and my finished attempted would not have been as slick!

Excellent job.

Just to say thanks for this code. I have implemented it and its working really well.

Thanks again for fixing a problem I’ve had for a while!

I tried putting this into a hidden CEWP, but it won’t display anything! I put the following code into the CEWP:

//
// Item ID in DispForm.aspx and EditForm.aspx
// Feedback and questions: Christophe@PathToSharePoint.com
//
function DisplayItemID()
{
var regex = new RegExp(“[\\?&]“+”ID”+”=([^&#]*)”);
var qs = regex.exec(window.location.href);
var TD1 = document.createElement(“TD”);
TD1.className = “ms-formlabel”;
TD1.innerHTML = “Issue ID”;
var TD2 = document.createElement(“TD”);
TD2.className = “ms-formbody”;
TD2.innerHTML = qs[1];
var IdRow = document.createElement(“TR”);
IdRow.appendChild(TD1);
IdRow.appendChild(TD2);
var ItemBody = GetSelectedElement(document.getElementById(“idAttachmentsRow”),”TABLE”).getElementsByTagName(“TBODY”)[0];
ItemBody.appendChild(IdRow);
}

_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push(“DisplayItemID”);

it doesn’t display anything, any advice? Thanks!

Nevermind, now it’s working…odd. Anyways, thanks!
