Look up custom field id in form at runtime
Hi All,
Firstly, I know this question has been asked previously here. But the suggested solution isn't working for me.
I am trying to create a sample Web-2-Lead form and include it as a VF page in a Package. The problem is that the ID's used for the custom Lead fields are different between organisations. And the custom fields in the W2L field reference those ID's directly. eg:
TestCustomField1:<input id="00NA00000046zKY" maxlength="20" name="00NA00000046zKY" size="20" type="text" /><br />
It was suggested in the thread above that these ID's would automatically be updated to match the new Field ID's when the package was installed into a new Org. However this didn't work for me.
So again I ask the question, is it possible to retrieve the ID of a field programatically, in Apex or VF? I have looked at the SObjectField and DescribeFieldResult classes, but neither exposes the ID.
Thanks in advance for any help.
