Mike

What you could try is doing it the same way that the search engines do it

Basically you parse out every word from the text and save it in a related file.  Then you parse out the search term, compare it to your list and prioritise on the number of hits.

There's more you can do but that should get you going.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Browse on a form with child browses

« on: February 21, 2008, 03:31:46 AM »

Hi All

I have a memory form which has a set of radio buttons and a browse which has children on it.  However when I select a record in the browse the children don't update to represent this.  They work fine if I call the browse on a normal web page?

OK I did a redesign so the logging in problem has gone away.  However it would still be nice to get rid of the frames for one form.

Cheers

>>
Do you mean by this...
"I can't determine where the Form opens, when clicking on the Insert / Change button on a Browse"

or

"I can't determine the Frame where the Browse opens when clicking on the Save / Cancel button in a form"
<<

I meant that when you specify the "form control procedure" there is no "target frame" option

Basically I have a form where I'm displaying info that the user needs to peruse below the form it's self in order to fill in the form however constantly scrolling up & down proving to be something of a pain so I'd like to ditch the frames so at least the users stand a chance of being able to see some of the info and fill it in without scrolling down every 2 seconds.

>>
Detect where, and why? You can detect in the code of a frame itself using JavaScript. However I'm not sure that's what you're alluding to.

On the server side you can't really tell because the browser doesn't tell you what it's gonna do with the page, it just asks for a page. Of course since you generated the URL in the first place, chances are you know what frame it's going into.
<<

Basically if I've programatically logged someone off the login page is appearing inside the main frame I'd prefer it to be unframed as it looks untidy or at least take the header & footer off of it.  But then again maybe I should do a re-design & just have it as a control.

Thanks Bruce & Alan

That works great for most bits. 

However I can't set the target frame for a form coming off of a browse.

BTW I can't help but feel I'm missing a trick here but is there a manual for all the P_WEB methods & properties?

I've searched and searched and can't seem to find one.

Web Server - Ask For Help / How do I get the base Url Path?

« on: January 18, 2008, 03:44:09 AM »

Hi All

I'm assuming that this is a property in P_web however I can't find it.  Basically if my url is http://www.anyoldwebsite.com/login.htm how do I get the http://www.anyoldwebsite.com/ part.

Cheers
