How can I allow users to add inputs in 2 datasets at one time?

Hi, I want to make a page where a user uploads their song’s details.

There will be 2 datasets : 1st - Album dataset, 2nd - Tracks

The page will capture majorly the album’s inputs. Now, there will be a repeater which should allow user to add the track details.
So, what all I need in this is :

  1. How can I make the repeater add a new item(track) in it?
  2. How will all these tracks get linked to the same album?

(There’s an option to do it by selecting the album name from the dropdown after applying some filters to the datasets, but this will not be user friendly, I need a better and easier solution for this)

Add a new field to the dataset maybe?

Do not forget, your repeater it’s just some kind of cinema projector, which shows you something on a wall.

  1. Projector = DATABASE ----> HOLDING-DATA
  2. LIGHT = DATASET ----------> CONNECTING
  3. WALL = REPEATER ---------> SHOWING

So, that means! —> if you want to have a new item/row/data inside your REPEATER, you will have to add a new data-row inside your DATABASE.

Through the connection of your repeater, it will be shown inside repeater, after the new row/data has been added to the DATABASE.

Take a look onto this very very old example, it never has been completed, but this is what you are looking for maybe…
