Web Server - Ask For Help / Mem Form Field
« on: April 21, 2024, 11:37:23 AM »
Hi Using NT14.18 and C11.0.136
I have some Entry fields on a MemForm. ( Strings).
Can I make Entry Fields ( strings ) - READ ONLY?
Is there a way to set an attribute - I am looking up data on 1 tab.
On Tab 2 - if there is no data in the table that I looked up then I want them to Enter Last Name and First name, etc.
If the data exists, then I just want to SHOW the Last Name and First name, etc and not allow modification.
Or do I have to hide/unhide Last name String (Entry) and Last Name (Display) based on the condition?
Thanks,
Ron

Hi Ken,
I have no CSS experience. I hired a young kid to help me with CSS and help me understand it. He knows NOTHING of Clarion. These young kids code this CSS in their sleep. He was able to help me do some styling - even to dig down and take what appeared to be the correct style and find what was overriding it and correct it - all in css.....My advice, buy some CSS time and you can get it sorted out very quickly. I am trying to wrap up my web app. I have the kid on call so that we can do all the css and make it look pretty. CSS was a big headache for me - now, I just call my consultant and he sorts it out very quickly! No more CSS headaches for me. Also, I am learning CSS and how to put stuff in clarion so that I can control the elements I want! Let me know if you want contact info for my guy. (He charges less than $40.00 per hour because he is in Nigeria.)

« on: April 21, 2024, 07:32:51 AM »
Solved!
I had to move my code to the "POST UPDATE". That allowed all the field validations and then when they were all validated, the code ran the UPDATE and then my code in the "POST UPDATE" embed. I had called the Memform in "Change" mode.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Using MemForm again
« on: April 21, 2024, 03:50:40 AM »
Hi, Using NT14.18 and C11.0.136
I am using a Memform called in Change mode. I am collecting data and using it to write to 3 different tables.
I am putting my code in the ValidateUpdate Routine ( which calls the do CompleteForm and do ValidateRecord routines) and it calls these first.
However, if I open the memform and click the "Save" button for the form, it starts writing to my 3 tables and then pops up a message that required fields are not filled in... However, I want it to get the required fields FIRST. Is there a statement like IF ALL FIELDS ARE VALIDATED then go ahead and write to the tables. If NOT ALL VALIDATED then remind them to fill in the required fields?
Thanks,
Ron

Hi, Using NT 14.18 and c11.0.13630.
I am calling a MemForm in Change Mode.
Question 1: I am capturing a local field with a alphanumeric field on Tab1. I want to display this field which is saved as a Session Variable on Tab2 - 'thisVIN'. I save it as p_web.SSV('thisVIN', thisVIN). I have tried various Display field methods such as displaying the TEXT of p_web.GSV('thisVIN'). I have tried displaying it as a Session Variable using p_web.GSV('thisVIN'). No luck. What is the trick?

HI Osquiabro,
That is exactly my intent. From mobile phone, I have 3 activities that they will do. Going to create a separate MemForm with those three buttons. Thanks for the info.
BTW, I sent you a message through Net Talk messaging on site to see if you do any consulting. I am going to need a little help with getting the mobile version of my web app going.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Different menu if they log on from mobile phone.
« on: April 06, 2024, 06:18:02 AM »
Hi,
I want to display a different menu and possibly a different start screen when the users log onto my program with a mobile phone. I am using @media <600 to trap small screens. My menus do change to the hamburg menu. I have created custom css for the small screens to display correctly. However, I want to change some behavior of the app on mobile scren.
1. I want to change the menu items - some so display and some not to display. How does that get done? I doubt that i can capture @media < 600 and use it as a condition. The other way that I can think of is to add a class attribute to the menu items and change their properties in the css. Which is doaboe or better?
2. I want to display a page with "3 Action Buttons" when they log in on a mobile phone. One way would be to give it a class name and hide it and use CSS to display if it is in on a small screen.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ron

Web Server - Ask For Help / Trying to Resize Browse Grid for Mobile phone
« on: March 26, 2024, 11:38:31 AM »
Hi All,
I have edited custom.css to make the font on my mobile phone screen so that it is x-small.
I have managed to edit a lot of the text in the browse grid to x-small text with the following css in custom.css.
@media screen and (max-width: 640px){
.nt-body-div{font-size: x-small}
.nt-child-grid{font-size: x-small}
}
However, what I really want to do is make the whole grid presentation SMALLER
THe following is the Class that I want to make SMALLER in its entirety.
What are the CSS settings to make the whole Browse Grid ( class=" nt-child-grid" ) shrink to only 50% of its
size?
Thanks,
Ron

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Best way to recover from web-folder out of sync
« on: March 17, 2024, 03:30:36 AM »
Poul,
A good place to start is on your web folder app which is running. On the window - go to Settings Tab (Log - Performance- Settings Tabs on top).
Settings Tab - will have 4 tabs (Site-Certificate-Headers-Proxy)
On the Site Tab - 4th field down: "Web Folder" - THIS HAS TO BE the LOCATION THAT YOUR APP IS RUNNING FROM.
If this path is NOT set correctly, then it will be pointing to an incorrect folder from which the running application CANNOT DOWNLOAD the correct assets....
So, that is the first place that I go to.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Refresh form fields after a pop-up form closes
« on: March 13, 2024, 02:57:35 AM »
Hi Jeff,
Are you on a form or a MemoryForm? The way I look at this is that a regular form is an almost linear progression of stages - as opposed to an ACCEPT LOOP which we are used to working with in windows. As such, the embeds and thinks that we want to do ( like close a form and update another's fields) does not work the way we expect. Bruce has said it, and I have found that using your forms and tables on a MemoryForm (personally I think that this name is misleading but it serves the purpose) allows me to be able to do those kind of things. The MemoryForm allows you to have something analogous to the Accept Loop functioning in that you can open and close controls and STAY WITHIN the MEMORY FORM PAGE and do this and that until you are done doing what you want to do. This is just the nature of the way browsers and internet work. For example, I have a browse and I want to have several drop down filters for it. The best way to get it done is on a Memory Form. Can move info and update other controls ( tables...) and stay on the same page. If you haven't started working with MemoryForms, I suggest that you start. Take your related forms and browses and simply put them into a Memory Form. Then you can work with them and move information between them much easier.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Mixing Small screens in Web App
« on: February 28, 2024, 05:36:56 AM »
Hi All,
Using NT14.18 and C11.013630
Before I build a PWA, my clients are going to run a web site mostly on their browser. There are a few screens that they will do on their mobile phones. Before I build the mobile phone app, I want to make and test the small screens in my web app. So, can I have the web app deliver a "mobile screen" version of the procedure when a mobile phone is used? I will have lets say 2 procedures - 1. Pick Services - Browser and 2. Pick Services - mobile phone. How can I have the app deliver the correct screen (2) when used on mobile phone?
Thanks,
Ron
