How to mask ampersand in ConfiForms Create/Update macro

[Ralf Weidauer]

I have two related forms , say frmA and frmB, and when a record is created in frmB I want to update a certain record in frmA by filter. frmA contains a field of type link, say lnkToFrmB, and I want it to hold the link to displayed record in frmB, that is something like

lnkToFrmB=<base_url>?pageId=123456&cf_id=[entry.id]

Actually I did not try that because I'm pretty sure that the reference to the frmB entry would be interpreted as a second parameter to be set.

So how can I make sure that the "&" is interpreted as part of the value?

Or would it be more appropriate to have a autolink field in frmB, say atmLnk, use the above structure as pattern and copy tis value to frmB (lnkToFrmB=[entry.atmLnk])?

Consider having an autolink field instead
