I know there's one somewhere, but I don't have a copy, so I decided to write one myself. I also know that some/all of this could be done with a staff forum, but I want to be able to keep some things between admin & specific moderators. For example, if I have to regularly remind a particular moderator to do a particular task (maybe boring or otherwise unpleasant), it would be better kept a private issue.
I have the first part done (Admin control & staff notification) but have a couple of germs crawling in my code. First, here's a link to a .txt format: Staff_Tasking Please advise if you cannot access it - there've been a few issues lately of IIS denying access.
Now for the problems:
1) Tasks will not delete. I've tried a standard href & pulling in the value from a Querystring (apparently does nothing except refresh the screen); and I've tried javascript onclick goSub (results in object expected error). This problem is more important than #2.
2) Retrieving date from pop-up calendar into the form's date text field. This isn't critical, since I'm the only one assigning tasks; but it'd be nice for releasing it as a mod when I'm done.
Sections still to be added:
1) Moderator checklist indicating task completion status, pages of forum completed (for their own benefit - in case they don't remember which pages they'd finished) & dates.
2) Moderator request for help form (i.e., for checking links and text in busy systems).

CF I assume I get the following error because the db has not been amended:
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e37'
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot find the input table or query 'FORUM_STAFF_TASKS'. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.
/forumtest/staff_tasking.asp, line 223
Do you have the file pop_datepicker.asp too? so I can beta test it.
regards and thanks andy

OK - Got the delete fixed & have an embedded calendar. I updated the text file. If I cannot get the date to populate with a hyperlink, I'll just leave it the way it is.
Now to create checklist(s)...< |

Etymon, yes, there's a dbs file that will accompany it. Didn't provide a link because I'm not through adding fields (i.e., page tracker).
Shaggy, thanks. I have an old version with the birthday calendar that I'll try and adapt.< |

Why not use the date selector Snitz uses on the profile forms? We replaced the pop-up calendar Snitz was using with this as most found it easier to use. If you really want to use a calendar, download an older version of Snitz and have a look at how it was done.

Do you have a dbs_ file to go with this?< |

I had to accept the session, but I got to the file.  < |
