Hi,

Can you share the current script how you are showing the above form?

Is it via UI page or widget?

Through a widget.  Currently its a simple server side script querying the custom table and displaying values on the list.  But where I am stuck is the attachments field information as the custom table attachment field I cannot see the extension type data as well as size.  Also how to create/download attachments through the portal side interface.

Hi,

not much sure on the view part

but for download part you can add the link to attachment record for each button for respective record and once user clicks that download button it would download the file
