Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Different menu if they log on from mobile phone.

« on: April 11, 2024, 08:26:13 AM »

HI Osquiabro,
That is exactly my intent.  From mobile phone, I have 3 activities that they will do.  Going to create a separate MemForm with those three buttons.  Thanks for the info.
BTW, I sent you a message through Net Talk messaging on site to see if you do any consulting.  I am going to need a little help with getting the mobile version of my web app going.
Thanks,
Ron

Web Server - Ask For Help / Different menu if they log on from mobile phone.

« on: April 06, 2024, 06:18:02 AM »

Hi,
I want to display a different menu and possibly a different start screen when the users log onto my program with a mobile phone.  I am using @media <600 to trap small screens.  My menus do change to the hamburg menu.  I have created custom css for the small screens to display correctly.  However, I want to change some behavior of the app on mobile scren.

1. I want to change the menu items - some so display and some not to display.  How does that  get done?  I doubt that i can capture @media < 600 and use it as a condition.  The other way that I can think of is to add a class attribute to the menu items and change their properties in the css.  Which is doaboe or better?

2. I want to display a page with "3 Action Buttons" when they log in on a mobile phone.  One way would be to give it a class name and hide it and use CSS to display if it is in on a small screen.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ron

Solved.  I hired a young kid to go over the css with me. 
in my custom.css:

@media screen and (max-width: 640px){
   .ui-dialog{max-width:100%}
   .ui-dialog-content{max-width:100%}
   .nt-body-div{font-size: x-small}
   .nt-contentpanel{font-size: x-small}
   .nt-child-grid{font-size: x-small}
   .nt-child-grid{
      display: grid;
    grid-template: 1fr;     <<<<<<<<<-------------  this one line did the trick!!!

Web Server - Ask For Help / Trying to Resize Browse Grid for Mobile phone

« on: March 26, 2024, 11:38:31 AM »

Hi All,
I have edited custom.css to make the font on my mobile phone screen so that it is x-small.
I have managed to edit a lot of the text in the browse grid to x-small text with the following css in custom.css.
@media screen and (max-width: 640px){
        .nt-body-div{font-size: x-small}
   .nt-child-grid{font-size: x-small}
}

However, what I really want to do is make the whole grid presentation SMALLER
THe following is the Class that I want to make SMALLER in its entirety.
What are the CSS settings to make the whole Browse Grid ( class=" nt-child-grid" ) shrink to  only 50% of its
size?
Thanks,
Ron

This is the element:

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Best way to recover from web-folder out of sync

« on: March 17, 2024, 03:30:36 AM »

Poul,
A good place to start is on your web folder app which is running.  On the window - go to Settings Tab  (Log - Performance- Settings Tabs on top).
Settings Tab - will have 4 tabs (Site-Certificate-Headers-Proxy)
On the Site Tab - 4th field down:  "Web Folder"  - THIS HAS TO BE the LOCATION THAT YOUR APP IS RUNNING FROM.
If this path is NOT set correctly, then it will be pointing to an incorrect folder from which the running application CANNOT DOWNLOAD the correct assets....
So, that is the first place that I go to.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Refresh form fields after a pop-up form closes

« on: March 13, 2024, 02:57:35 AM »

Hi Jeff,
Are you on a form or a MemoryForm?  The way I look at this is that a regular form is an almost linear progression of stages - as opposed to an ACCEPT LOOP which we are used to working with in windows.  As such, the embeds and thinks that we want to do ( like close a form and update another's fields) does not work the way we expect.  Bruce has said it, and I have found that using your forms and tables on a MemoryForm (personally I think that this name is misleading but it serves the purpose) allows me to be able to do those kind of things.  The MemoryForm allows you to have something analogous to the Accept Loop functioning in that you can open and close controls and STAY WITHIN the MEMORY FORM PAGE and do this and that until you are done doing what you want to do.  This is just the nature of the way browsers and internet work. For example, I have a browse and I want to have several drop down filters for it.  The best way to get it done is on a Memory Form. Can move info and update other controls ( tables...) and stay on the same page.   If you haven't started working with MemoryForms, I suggest that you start.  Take your related forms and browses and simply put them into a Memory Form.  Then you can work with them and move information between them much easier.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Mixing Small screens in Web App

« on: February 28, 2024, 05:36:56 AM »

Hi All,
Using NT14.18 and C11.013630
Before I build a PWA, my clients are going to run a web site mostly on their browser.  There are a few screens that they will do on their mobile phones.  Before I build the mobile phone app, I want to make and test the small screens in my web app. So, can I have the web app deliver a "mobile screen" version of the procedure when a mobile phone is used?  I will have lets say 2 procedures - 1. Pick Services - Browser and 2. Pick Services - mobile phone.  How can I have the app deliver the correct screen (2) when used on mobile phone?
Thanks,
Ron

Hi
NT 14.16  C 11.0.136
I have a web MEMORY form which I call to have the end user enter a new password and then to repeat the new password to make sure  that they are the same.
Where Do I put the code to check if the password and repeat new password fields have the same content?
Do I put the code under the Immediate Validation for repeat new password field?
Thanks,

Web Server - Ask For Help / Net Talk - Scan a document

« on: February 12, 2024, 02:46:01 PM »

Hi,
NT 14.16  C11.0.136
My clients want to scan a document and save it in my NetWeb Program.
How might I accomplish this?   Would they have to pull up a scanner program in Windows and scan the document and then in the web app pick the file with the document?  Is it easier to accomplish in the Web App?
Thanks,
Ron

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Starting NetWeb E Mail on own thread - compile problem

« on: February 12, 2024, 02:40:28 PM »

Hi
From Net Talk Documentation:
 Calling the SendEmail Procedure
The SendEmail procedure can be acalled from any other procedure. It might be a button, or a menu item, or it might happen in source code when some event occurs. To call SendEmail follow these steps:
Create a local variable in the procedure;
parms group(EmailParametersGroup).
Where you want to send the email, prime the components of the parms parameter
clear(parms)
parms.pEmailTo = 'bruce@capesoft.com'
parms.pEmailFrom = glo:UserEmail
parms.pEmailSubject = 'Great Release'
parms.pEmailCC = ''
parms.pEmailBCC = ''
parms.pEmailFileList = ''
parms.pEmailEmbedList = ''
parms.pEmailMessageTextST.SetValue('Well done on a great release')
parms.pEmailMessageHTMLST.SetValue('<html>...</html>')
Call the SendEmail procedure. You can do this on another thread;
START(SendEmail,25000,parms)   <<<<<<<<=========================
or on the same thread (in which case you get a returned value;
result = SendEmail(parms)

Web Server - Ask For Help / Starting NetWeb E Mail on own thread - compile problem

« on: February 12, 2024, 07:47:37 AM »

Hi,
Basic question which I am having problems solving.  NT14.16, C11.0.136.
SendEMail procedure has:
  Prototype:  (EmailParametersGroup pEmail),long,proc
  Parameters:  (EmailParametersGroup pEmail)


THis works correctly ( on same thread):
  If SendEmail(parms) = 0
    .....
   end

However, i want to send E mail on its own thread:
START(SendEmail,35000,parms) gives "No Matching Prototype error"

What am I missing?
Thanks,
Ron

Hi,
NT 14.16
Clarion 11.0.13630
My kiosk users are going to be given an initial password.  I want them to set their own password when they first log into the program ( for security ).  How can i accomplish this?  Should I re-direct them to another login reset page or do it directly in code in the login page for the site?  Other suggestions on how to handle this?
Thanks,

Want to give the user 5 tries to get password correct then get them OUT of the Login procedure back to index page.

What is proper way to get back to Index page?
