Updating data
In the day-to-day operations of most Web sites, you update records more often than you insert new records.
The process in Dreamweaver for creating an update records page is similar to the one for the insert records
application with one important difference??”you must have a recordset defined. Detail pages are good candidates
to transform into update applications. They already have the features necessary for an update application;
namely, they have a recordset or other method for specifying a single record, and they are often
generated from master-type pages. The major difference is that an update records application also requires
specific server-side code??”which is supplied in Dreamweaver by the Update Record server behavior.
