Web Server - Ask For Help / How to store "global" Config data

« on: March 22, 2014, 07:04:49 AM »

I need to store some global values a user configured in a session so that the next time he uses the program it must not be done again. These values must be persistent for ever and some of these values I must read out at the very first possible point, before any website is openend, especially before the Login. This is like having an Ini file/registry setings for Win32 progs which I read out at mainframe procedure setup embed.

These values are workingplace/device related, because some of it I must use before the program knows which user has logged in.
So, how to Cookie it ? Which embeds I must use ? Any hints and ideas are appreciated.
TIA. Ciao Thomas

Web Server - Ask For Help / file opening and WebHandler

« on: March 21, 2014, 02:53:59 AM »

If I have a file access (TPS at the moment) in the WebHandler can this be a performance penalty ? If I understand correctly, with each request from a user the WebServer opens a new thread - the WebHandler. So every time a request is getting processed the file is opened and closed. Correct ?
Can this be a problem with lots of simultaneous/parallel requests ?
TIA and Ciao, Thomas

It is correct that the 00 to 20 representing the placeholders for your languages ?

Any ideas apreciated !

Hi Kevin,
yes, I designed my themes with ThemeRoller and it is really great. But these themes are not covering the "NT specialities" or it's overwritten by the nt-ui css. Out of the box general pages and especially forms looking really good.
But if I start with a greenish theme with greenish browse (the browse part overwritten by my custom.css) and the user selects a reddish theme at runtime he will still have a greenish browsebox... brrrrr..
Got the picture ?

General.. why I'm doing this..
I make software for radiology. In this market it is standard to skin the UI with darkish colors. This comes from the diagnostic work of the radiologists and has something to do with retinal adaption.

I was not clear enough, sorry..
I want to give the users the possibility to choose a theme at runtime. No prob so far. But I must overwrite some settings in each theme with different, "theme dependent" values. It means that I have several custom.css wich are identical regarding the selectors and properties but with different values for each theme.
I cannot make it out how to accomplish this.. Is there a way to do this ?
TIA, Thomas

I could change a lot of settings I needed to change with my own theme like CSS. But nettalk-ui.css is the last man who wins... Does it means that all settings inside nettalk-ui.css I cannot overwrite ?

Yup, I've seen it.. If FireBug can do what I want then it's time for me to install Firefox ;-)

Web Server - Ask For Help / CSS hierarchy tool

« on: March 03, 2014, 02:10:35 AM »

Does anyone know a tool which can show for a page the applying order of the CSS files and which classes ect. are affected ? I know about CSS and how to read it by myself, but it would be a lot faster to see it directly than to trial and error or to dig into a hierarchy depth of 8..
I mean i.e. let me point to a class .abc and then see the order of the CSS files in which this class gets overwritten.

Or do I need to wait vor NT8 and it's Visual Designer ? ;-)

TIA, Thomas
