Beth Walter Apex code errors
I am trying to create a visual force page, so I can create a custom button that allows me to create a quote right after saving an opportunity. I placed the code in a visual force page. When I try to save it, it gives me an error message. See everything below. How do I fix the error?
Error: Create_Quote line 55, column 13: The element type "quote" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</quote>"
Error: The element type "quote" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</quote>".
<apex:page>
trigger QuoteCreate on Opportunity (after insert) {
List<Id> oppIdsList = new List<Id>();
List<Quote> quoteList = new List<Quote>();
for (Opportunity o : Trigger.new) {
if(o.FME_AMC_Renewal__c == True)
oppIdsList.add(o.id);
}
Opportunity[] oppList = [SELECT name, id, account.billingStreet, account.billingCity,
account.billingState, account.billingCountry
FROM Opportunity
WHERE id IN :oppIdsList];
for (Opportunity o : oppList) {
Quote q = new Quote();
q.name = o.name;
q.opportunityId = o.id;
q.billingStreet = o.account.billingStreet;
q.billingCity = o.account.billingCity;
q.billingState = o.account.billingState;
q.billingCountry = o.account.billingCountry;
quoteList.add(q);
}
insert quoteList;
}

There is a fundamental problem in your understanding about visualforce pages and triggers.
Visualforce page is a user interface i.e the view of the record detail page or view of the record edit page
Trigger is a code that runs when an event happens.
E.g when a new opportunity is created, create a new quote
When you hit the 'Save' button to create a new opportunity record, an event occurs.
After Saving the opportunity, the process of automatically creating a new quote record is handled by the code in the trigger.
In the Use Case you have described, you don't need a button, neither do you need a visualforce page.
All you need is a trigger, which you have.
I am assuming the trigger 'QuoteCreate ' exists in your org.
If not, open Developer Console, then go to File , then cllick New then Click Apex Trigger. Copy and paste your trigger in the editor. Click Save
That's it. Everytime you create a new opportunity record, without pressing any button a Quote record will be created. Quote exists as a related list on the Opportunity record detail page.
To test , Click the opportunity tab, Click New, click Save.
Go to Quotes, and you should see a new record on Quotes.
Let me know if you need further help.
We cannot write classes in Visualforce pages.
UI = Visualforce pages
Backend = apexclasses
Automotain = Triggers
Hope this helps you!

Compile Error: Variable does not exist: FME_AMC_Renewal__c at line 14 column 14
What does it mean? Please help.
Check if that field exists on the Opportunity object in your org.
