Overriding New button on contact
Hi,
I am trying to override the new button on contacts with the following code taken from the cookbook.
var newUrl = "{!URLFOR( $Action.Contact.NewContact, null, [con4_lkid= Account.Id, con4 = Account.Name, con19city = Account.BillingCity, con19state = Account.System_State_Code__c, con19street = Account.BillingStreet, con19zip = Account.BillingPostalCode, con19country = Account.BillingCountry, retURL=$Request.retURL] ,true)}"; window.parent.location.replace(newUrl);
The idea is to populate the Mailing State/Province field on Contact with the custom field System_State_Code__c. I think there is a Salesforce bug here as the code does not work if I leave in the lines:
con4_lkid= Account.Id, con4 = Account.Name,
If I remove these lines, the Mailing State/Province does get populated, however the Account lookup on the contact will be blank.
