[Massimo Linossi]

Hi Antonio.
In the get clause, can you use the VALID and PICTURE syntax ?
Thanks
Massimo.

Hubert,

Harbour + FiveWeb create standard CGIs apps, that generate HTML at runtime, using JQuery UI and some code of our own.

[Antonio Linares]

Massimo,

No, not yet. I think we will be able to implement them, but not available yet

[Massimo Linossi]

Thanks Antonio for your great work.

Hi Antonio,

Great work on FiveWeb. I have reviewed responses regarding version 1.0 and I have a few questions.

1. Will we be able to obtain screen resolution so we can calculate dialog width and height?
2. Will there be support for MS SQL, Oracle, etc.?
3. Can we use CSS to create a screen similar to the image below?



Thank you,

[Antonio Linares]

Forms designer bug solved!

We finally solved the jquery ui problem that we were having that was stopping us from evolving the forms designer:
The solution was not to modify innerHTML property, instead use DOM and add the new children.

We continue the development of the FiveWeb forms designer:

Hello Antonio,
I would like to understand the new product.
Am I write that you can use the whole fivewin power except the “screen controls”.
Here you are limited at the ones which are ready at the moment. Which I think are the most important ones.
Can you please descript the developing and employment of a FIVEWEB app.

Thanks in advance
Otto

Dear Otto,

On a web application there is the client side (multiple clients) and the server side (just one server app for all the clients).

On the client side we use the web browser, where we just can execute HTML (+ css style sheets) and javascript. But the client can perform multiple requests to the server (where the FiveWeb app is). The server app is built using Harbour and FiveWeb.

The server app basically performs a process, and provides a HTML output, and ends. It does not remain open, or waiting. It process, provides a result and ends. The dialog boxes, controls, etc that we see on the client side (web browser) are DOM objects managed using javascript.

From those controls, menu options, etc... we can call the server app again, to get new results or simply to update the current ones (in this case we use Jquery Ajax support).

Please let me know if you get this idea, and what are your doubts about it.
