Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Form on a browse

« on: October 09, 2010, 02:39:24 AM »

I found a post that seems to indicate that it its not that easy.

Still, if anyone has an idea ...  The form is view only

Hi there!

I would like to have a form as a child on a browse. So let's say I have an order browse with a lot of information but I only have a handfull of fields I want to place on the browse. The other fields I want to place on a form (for viewing only) below the browse. So when I click on a row in the browse the fields inside the form/view have to tag along.
How can I do that? I have tried to most obvious way to put the update form as a child of the order browse, but that does not work.

Thanks!
Sjoerd

Hi Sjoerd,

>> I would like to have a form as a child on a browse.

Yes, this seems like an obvious thing to do, and something I started looking into in example #5 (which doesn't work).

It turns out to be a seriously non-trivial thing to implement, because of the way the architecture works. At the moment it's one of those cases where the "simple" is really not simple under the skin. I might be able to make it work in NetTalk 5, but at this stage I' making no promises.

One possible work-around is to use a NetWebSource rather than a netWebForm. This (unfortunately) means you have to code the html yourself, but is more-or-less the only option right now.

Cheers
Bruce

Bruce,

Do you have some examples of this manual option you're talking about since this is my only option right now?

Web Server - Ask For Help / Form on a browse

« on: October 07, 2010, 06:06:31 PM »

Hi guys,
             I am sure that this is probably easy, I just need a pointer as to how to do it. (Havving a child on a web browse doesn't seem to be the way to go)
Nettalk4
I whish to place a non-editable form with tabs below a webbrowse. The form will show the contents of each browse record as you scroll through.
I have looked through the examples / docs and can't see how to do.
Attached is a screenshot of the general idea
Regards
Murray

Web Server - Ask For Help / Problems with browse updates

« on: December 09, 2008, 11:17:13 PM »

Hi Guys,

I have a problem with a form that has 5 tabs - each with a browse on it.
The browses are all the same browse procedure except they are filtered differently.
Selection of records is by radio button, and there is a form proc for editing.
I can insert records (using the form proc) off the browse, but if I try to edit it always goes to the last record in the file (even though that record may not appear on the filtered browse) and tries to edit that.

Any clues? Is there a problem with using more than 1 of the same browse proc on a form?

Thanks

Web Server - Ask For Help / XP-Taskpanel menu

« on: December 06, 2008, 04:38:44 PM »

Hi - quick question

Does anyone know how to change the width of the XP-Taskpanel menu.
(Nettalk web menu extension) . By default it is about 100 px, I need it wider.
The page is not using frames.

TIA

Hi Mike,
             Yes I suppose one way would be to have a 'watchdog' thread
which will send packets to the page.
You could start the thread when the report or whatever starts, the send a 'die' event to the thread when the report ends.

Cheers

My feeling is that is might involve hacking the report to pdf templates / class

Not a good option

Web Server - Ask For Help / Potential vulnerability

« on: August 04, 2008, 03:27:47 AM »

Hi everyone,
                  I have just had a message from a website user regarding a vulnerability with entered data. I am no expert on web security but what he says seems to make sense.

Excerpt from email:

I'd love to support the project and I have a couple of ideas for hardening the website. The picture attached to this email shows a simple js alert box popping up after I've submited a project with parameter Pro_Description equal to <script>alert(1)</script> This is a simple vuln on your website I saw there... I find the fact of data not being filtered when registering unsafe.

End excerpt

So as I see it - if someone enters <script> .. code .. </script>, then when someone views the page - the code is passed to their browser and executes.

The Webserver needs to filter out these statements (or do I need to do this manually - Yuk)

Cheers

Murray

Web Server - Ask For Help / Report timeouts

« on: July 31, 2008, 07:02:04 PM »

Hi All,
          I have a webapp that generates reports, these work fine however if a report is large the client browser times out.

The solution as I see it is to send a 'I am still here' packet (of anything) to the client browser at regular intervals to keep it interested.( I do this with charts using p_web.ParseHTML in validaterecord.)
However in reports - as the PDF is being generated (which can take some time) there seems to be no hook (timer) in which to send  'I am still here' packets.

Any ideas?

TIA

Web Server - Ask For Help / Cyrillic

« on: July 01, 2008, 11:45:44 PM »

Hi,
      We have had a request to translate our web server app into Russian (Cyrillic).

The templates (unfortunately) seem to only allow entry
of ascii rather than unicode.

Is this doable in any way?

That last sentence should really read -
Or any better solutions to selecting multiple records in a browse ..

« on: June 23, 2008, 05:01:47 AM »

Hi Bruce,
               I have changed tack slightly and am using a browse row button to select a record.
Type = button
Action = Other

(Client side tab)

Send button click to server = on
Refresh row = on

In the server code embed I have put code plus a debug trace -
This is not being executed (on the server side) when the button is clicked.
Javascript is enabled on the client.

Ideas?
Or any better solutions to selecting records ..

Thanks

Web Server - Ask For Help / Using EIP (4.31)

« on: June 22, 2008, 09:30:41 PM »

Hi Guys,
              I am using EIP (Nettalk 4.31) on a browse to select records (from an In-mem file).
Basically there is a dropdown EIP which is loaded from a file. The only values are 'Yes' and 'No'.

When an option (yes or no) is selected, the values are not updating in the in-memory file.

I am assuming that the In-mem file updated as soon as the new  value is selected frop the EIP dropdown list.
Is this the case? Or is there some weird web trick to this?

Thanks

Murray
