Make the save method return a Pagereference and this pagereference will be of the detail page of the record inserted..something similar to :

hi sonam,

Thanks for your reply..
I just wanted to know whether the above piece of code  mentioned in ur link would work for custom controllers?

Thanks

Also i have customized my save method

hi sonam,

private ApexPages.StandardController controller;

    public SaveAndReturnController(ApexPages.StandardController controller)
    {
        this.controller = controller;
    }

this thing is throwing error.i have used it this way:

   public Product2 pro{get;set;}
  
   private ApexPages.StandardController controller;

    public OuterClass(ApexPages.StandardController controller)
    {
        this.controller = controller;
    }

  
    public PageReference save() {
       
        controller.save();
        PageReference view = controller.view();
        return view ;
    }

aah, you are using a custom controller, sorry slipped my mind - this piece of code would not work in this condition as it has a ApexPages.StandardController instance. Will check and let you know if I find a workaround.

Try making these changes to your save method

 

public PageReference save()
    {
        PageReference cancel = controller.cancel();
        controller.save();
        return cancel;
    }

Hi madhura,

I wonder ,how will it wrk?controller is an instance of ApexPages.standardController and my class is a custom controller
Madhura BMadhura B

I might have misunderstood because of this part of your code

private ApexPages.StandardController controller;

    public OuterClass(ApexPages.StandardController controller)
    {
        this.controller = controller;
    }

If you have customised your Save method, and I assume you have written insert/ upsert/ update a record can you try

PageReference pRef= new new PageReference('/'+recordId);
pRef.setRedirect(true);
return pRef;
