Web Server - Ask For Help / Wait, Hourglass, rotating circle thingy...
« on: October 17, 2012, 12:28:20 AM »
G'day all,
Though this is probably very basic, I'm unable to find it so thought I'd ask here;
You know the little circle thingy that rotates while you're waiting for something to happen in a browser?.. Like the equivilent to the ol' hourglass thingy in a desktop app.
How do I code that while I'm looping through a squillion records... For example... when the user clicks a button?
Thanks
Pauly

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Stopping Drag & Drop capability in Netwebyear

HI Bruce,
Thanks for the reply - The form actually contains a browse with a child of a child.. IE -Calendar Table-> Form With Child table that contains a browse-> Form to add records to the browse related to the child.
I can understand why in some applications that would be cool - but definitely not in this one. I look forward to the option :-)
Thanks again
Pauly

Web Server - Ask For Help / Stopping Drag & Drop capability in Netwebyear
« on: September 05, 2012, 02:46:47 AM »
Hi,
How do I stop the drag & drop capability of the NetWebYear claendar display?
I have a 'Big' NetWebYear displayed in a page, and the user can drag one displayed 'Day' (IE; one of the squares that represent a day), onto another. That would be cute if I wanted it, but I dont - And all the records that were related to the original date (The day that was dragged) disappear when it's dropped. Rather than add another feature (like say to the user.. look, you can drag one date ointo another and all the records end up in the second one) I'd just like to restrict this behaviour.
Thanks
Pauly

HI,
Should there be a space in between 'F1:' and 'USER_ID'
All through your examples there is, and surely that would cause unpredictable behaviour?

« on: September 03, 2012, 02:24:53 AM »
Maybe I will rephrase -
I want the form to be 'completed' when the user clicks save, _or_ presses enter, and I would like to run some code at that point.

Hi Bruce,
I just want some code to run - In particular, this code will be adding or updating a table record, after calculating some values from session variables. Not pushing or pulling anything. I just need a place (or two if I have to!) that will run the same code when a user either clicks on the save button, or presses enter.
By the way - the users of this application see pressing enter, and clicking on 'the button other than cancel' as exactly the same thing operationally :-)
Thanks
Paul

G'day Bruce,
I have attached an example - Can you please put 'p_web.popup('Hi Paul') in the appropriate embed point (in the procedure formproc) that will run both when the user clicks on the save button and wne the user presses enter (while in the form of course)- Buggered if I can find it.
Thanks

Web Server - Ask For Help / Run code When a form is completed
« on: August 31, 2012, 05:05:47 AM »
Hi,
In a memory form (or a table form for that matter) I simply want to run some code when the form is completed.
That is.. when the user clicks the 'Save' button, _or_ presses enter.
Try as I might, the embed point eludes me.. there just HAS to be a place when I can put some code (lets say p_web.Popup('Closing') ) that will be run any time the form is completed by the user clkicking the save button _or pressing enter.
Advice please?
Pauly

Web Server - Ask For Help / Save a record without leaving the form
« on: August 23, 2012, 04:03:21 AM »
Hi -
I have a popup form with the first tab containing a number of file fields, and a second tab with a number of local (well,, session) variables and a button.
The form can be open for Changes or Inserts.
When the button on the second tab is clicked, and the record is being inserted (IE; it's not yet saved), I want to save the record as if the 'Save' button had been clicked on the form and the form to stay open, while I do some other stuff in code
Hope I've explained sufficiently.
How do I go about that?
Thanks
Pauly

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Documentation?
« on: August 23, 2012, 03:24:02 AM »
Hmmm.. that reminds me of the guys that say 'I do not need to comment my code as it is self documenting' - Two years later they are wondering what the hell they were trying to achieve in their own code! :-)
But seriously folks.. a small but relevant example... p_web.message() How do I find out what the parameters valid values, intentions, and limitations are - For that matter - how do I find out if it's even what I think it is?
I hope you get what I'm, saying - not trashing anything, just wanting information.
Thanks
Pauly

Web Server - Ask For Help / Documentation?
« on: August 22, 2012, 03:11:57 AM »
Hi,
Is there a reference document somewhere that I'm missing (or more likely can't find! :-))?
The reason I ask is that there seems not to be a 'Language reference manual' or whatever you want to call it with Nettalk, so the syntax and parameters of keywords is questionable.
I've bougt the book, which gives some examples of specific scenarios, however I'm hungry for some more effective 'hunt and peck' type documentation.
Is there anything available?
Thanks.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Bug? - Refreshing values on a page when one changes
« on: April 17, 2012, 02:27:42 AM »
HI again,
Well I created a button on a webform, which calls a popup form. on which the user can enter dates and select drop lists from where I SSV the values (to build a filter).
On the calling form (Lets call it form 1) I have a few display only fields and the button. The button is clicked, it pops up the form the user selects items on thet form and cloises it, and the chosen values show on the first form.
BUT
Once I got that working, I put a browse (well a netrweb year) onto the first form.. this is to display the records, filtered according to what the user selected before.
RESULT.. clicking on the button now does nothing. If I remove the browse, it works again (IE click the button.. up pops the form). If I add the browse to the page.. It stops working again.
Will this _ever_ work?
Has anyone ever got a browse to filter records based on a users input?

Seems we are not the only ones... Have a look at the Clarion.contracts.jobs newsgroup.. People are actually wanting to hire others to 'walk them through' techniques. I see an opportunity for Bruce here :-)

I'd also like to see what's going on. I read the docs, and even bought the book - but am still challenged when it comes to knowing where (for example) to put some code that'll fire every time I do xxx... A hint sheet would do.. perhaps a list of the 'old' clarion embed points (remember them?) with the relative Nettalk one. I understand that may not be possible for all.
