< goto >
Description
The < goto > attribute transitions to another item in the current form, another dialog in the same document, or to a different document. Transitioning to another dialog in the current document or to a different document will cause the old dialog’s variables to be lost. Document variables are retained when transitioning to the same document with an empty URI reference.
Syntax
