    Button in Toolbar #56913

    Thank you Dimitar for your timely help. Can you please let me know, how to perform a search in toolbar with a button based on multiple inputs. That is, I mean, I want to give roll no, student name and class as inputs to perform a search. So I will need 3 comboboxes, one to choose roll no, one more to choose student name, another to choose class and when I click search button, I want to perform a search. TIA

    Also, if I perform a search based on the inputs, how many times will the search information be sent to the server, I mean, do I have to refresh the page everytime I perform a search? If I keep clicking the search button again and again, I don’t see any information being passed on to the server. Can anyone explain please?
