Customize list form

This is really still just my own memo.

To redirect after submit, add ?source=URL.

The official way (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointdesigner/HA101191111033.aspx) of creating a custom list form, uses the DataFormWebPart.
It has a limitation. Attachment does not work. So it has to be disabled.

There seems unsupported workaround exists. http://cid-6d5649bcab6a7f93.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!6D5649BCAB6A7F93!130.entry


If it is just to apply the coporate masterpage, we could go just by replacing that of the default NewForm.aspx with whichever masterpage we want.
Attachment works.

BTW, NewForm.aspx uses ListFormWebPart. We can not customize it, or a very little. For instance, it seems we can not hide fields that we do not need users to fill in.

My first experience with Subversion

On the Subversion server, I did:
- Create a folder for my repository, and
- Did TortoiseSVN “Create repository here …” on the folder.
This should be the equivalent of doing DOS> svnadmin create (path to the folder).

And on my PC,
- Create a folder structure in a temporal location, in the way that I want to organize my projects like below.
Category1\ Project1-1\ trunck
branches
tags
Project1-2\ trunk
branches
tags
Category2\ Project2-1\ trunk
branches
tags
etc.
- Then, import those Categories, specifying the repository’s URL i.e. http://(svn server)/svn/(repository)/.

I wanted to organize projects in categories in one repository, but seems they are igonored when I imported.
What created in the repository are only the projects, in flat structure, no categories…

Then, finally I import my VisualStudio solutions and projects as follows, always on my PC.
For each,
- Import the VS solution, specifying this time URL of the project’s trunk folder i.e. http://(svn server)/svn/(repository)/(project)/trunk.
# my categories were completely ignored…


Here is how to make changes into those projects, and save back into svn.
- First, I need to checkout the VS project from svn, into an empty folder of the name of the project.
# I can not make the change directly into the project from which I did the intial import.
- Then, make whatever modifications I need to do.
- Next, I could verify if nobody else has changed the project in the meantime, with check for modifications, or update.
- Finally, I commit the project.
