Hi Mark, Its surely unintential bug :) because as the curr_db is sent through the GET method so we arnt loosing it but we are not keeping up with it when we jump to the field. This is what i managed to carve out. :) May be we should post a form for each link clicking along with a hidden input depicting the db context on which it has to be switched iff it is a case with $REQUEST. (this could be an easy workout solution) - Regards Dron Rathore
