Web Server - Ask For Help / Tooltip timeout length

« on: December 22, 2016, 09:40:00 AM »

Is there a property to change the time a tooltip stays displayed?  I want to use tooltips as fairly lengthy help notes but they don't stay open long enough to read all of it.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Problem calling form without browse

« on: December 03, 2016, 01:40:59 PM »

I have tried both ways without success.  When I call using the URL I get this error msg

Record not found: (-2) Error 30: Entry Not Found from key GLOCfg:K_sysid

This is the URL I use from a menu

'UpdatePreferences?change_btn=change&_bdiv_=' & p_web.addbrowsevalue('pageheadertag','glocfg',glocfg:K_sysid,1)

There is only one record and that has a sysid of 1

It looks like maybe the file is not being opened in time for the record fetch

Anybody else seen this?

Web Server - Ask For Help / App has stopped navigating with IE 11

« on: February 05, 2014, 08:54:14 AM »

I've got an app in NT4 which has stopped browsing under IE 11 and Firefox.  Its borderline economic to upgrade it to NT6 so I'm a bit stuck.

Clicking on the Next/Previous/Change etc buttons does nothing.  I tried a reset on the browser but no effect.

Anybody got any ideas?

Web Server - Ask For Help / CSV file is treated as XLT

« on: December 17, 2013, 09:48:37 AM »

I modified the Excel example app to create a CSV file.

The CSV file is in the right format because when I open it with Excel locally there is no problem - all rows/columns filled correctly.

But when I click on the link in the Viewreport procedure Excel thinks it is an XLT file and puts the entire row in one cell.

Anybody else come across this?

Web Server - Ask For Help / NetTalk 7 Examples Reference

« on: December 05, 2013, 03:10:06 AM »

Is there an explanation somewhere in the docs for each web server example app?  I was looking in the NetTalk 7 Examples Reference for more info on the Secwin example.

The example warns me that some templates are missing and it will remove them - but I don't know which ones are missing.

Then the example throws up compile errors - looking at the generated source code the base module starts off   ~~~~~~~ Program - anyone else seen this?

Web Server - Ask For Help / "Error in site javascript" for every app

« on: November 24, 2013, 04:32:57 AM »

Just getting started with version 6 - I'm using C6.3 with Nettalk 6.55 - and for every example app I have tried I get this message in the browser "error in site javascript".  It stops the app right at the beginning.

Have I made some Nettalk 6 newbie error?

Web Server - Ask For Help / How do you refresh a form field on return from another procedure?

« on: June 11, 2011, 01:40:01 AM »

I have a form with a button called "modules" which calls a browse/form where I can edit this child modules file.  When the user clicks OK I have a little bit code  which cyles through the modules for that parent record adding up the percent achieved for each module.  This is then saved to the "total percent achieved" field in the parent record.

problem is - when I return from the child browse to the main form the total per cent field has not been refreshed.

Anybody know a way to refresh just one field?

thanks

Web Server - Ask For Help / Browse Range Limit Type and Higher Key Component

« on: March 16, 2010, 03:58:56 AM »

Is there any way to work round the absence of the Higher Key Component for browse range limits?

I have a key with 3 key fields

Terminated          BYTE
Assessor            STRING(50)
Learner            STRING(50)

I need to show a subset where terminated =0 and assessor= (selected name) - I can do it now by using the filter for assessor and the range limit for terminated.  But on 1000s of records users are reporting slow performance.

Any ideas much appreciated.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Where to check if file upload has failed?

« on: February 03, 2010, 03:38:42 PM »

I'm using the File Upload field type in NTWS 4 - where I can check if the file upload actually completed successfully?

I guess somewhere in WebHandler?

Web Server - Ask For Help / Form Prompt Text is wrapping around and on top of itself

« on: January 23, 2010, 02:02:15 AM »

Has anyone seen this problem:

http://www.sterlingdata.com/wam problem.jpg

When the IE window is maximized it's OK but as soon as I reduce the window size the problem shows.  I know that the prompt "column" will wrap in these circumstances but how can I stop it overlaying the first line?  I don't want to use Span because I think the "ragged" left edge look is hard to follow.

Using NT4.40 and C6.3

thanks

Web Server - Ask For Help / Filter lost by nav keys?

« on: December 08, 2009, 04:26:31 AM »

I use a filter in a browse called from a form

'lea:assessor = ''' & p_web.GSV('Loc:assessor') & ''' '

It works OK the first time but as soon as I press one of the navigation keys (Next etc) the filter is lost and p_web.GSV('Loc:assessor') returns an empty string.

Seems like somewhere the session  queue us being emptied??

Web Server - Ask For Help / Conditionally skip Login Form

« on: August 03, 2009, 04:12:47 AM »

Sometimes I need to bypass the Login Form, based on a command line parameter, and go straight into the app menu.

I have been trying a few things but can't get round the need to chain to Framepage.

Is there a way to conditionally change the default start page (loginpage) for one session?

Or is there a cleaner way to do the above?

regards

Web Server - Ask For Help / How to autoclose a form?

« on: July 31, 2009, 04:01:20 AM »

I'm using a form (with no fields) as a place to put some Clarion code.

There is a save button and I want the form to close automatically.  Usually I would put POST(event:accepted,?cancel) in the event:openwindow.

What's the equivalent in NTWS?

regards

Mike
