views

I have a Drupal view that displays vacation leaves for a particular employee.

I want to have a button or link right on this view that says 'Add Vacation Leave'. When this button/link is clicked, I want the create content form for Vacation Leave to be displayed with the employee's name already filled in.

When 'Save' is clicked, I would like to go right back to the view, with my new content added. Is all of this possible?

Thanks, Paul
