Web Server - Share Knowledge / Flexbox CSS in 20 minutes
« on: August 15, 2021, 12:01:05 AM »
Hi,

I have been struggeling to get the hang of Flexbox, until I found this on youtube.
It is probably not complete but it certainly did help me.

Web Server - Ask For Help / Save button when uploading a file
« on: April 20, 2021, 12:00:20 PM »
Hi,
I have a form with a file upload button.
Also there is a date field, the user has to fill.
The upload button uploads right away.
The save button processes the uploaded file.
I have tried to to some validity check when the save button is clicked, but it omly processes the file.
How can I add some validation here?

Cheers,
Rene

Hi Ubaidullah,

You are absolutely right.
But this time I stick to TPS.

Hi Ubaidullah,

That is a good question. To answer that I just Googled "SQLite vs MSSQL" and it came up with the following:

"Microsoft SQL Server is a powerful, full featured SQL system that supports entire ecosystems. While SQLite is a light-weight database meant to be embedded into end programs. SQLite is often useful even to SQL Server professionals when they need to create smaller databases without a full server setup to support."

Add to that the fact that I am not a computer scientist but just someone with a bunch of ideas.
I don't want the hassle of also having to be the support engineer of an MSSQL server.
I Also like the small footprint of the SQLite file system which means that I have more room for my application.
Which would allow me to spend less money on a server that performs well enough.

BUT when I take Bruce's answer in consideration I'd better stick to TPS.
Small footprint, harder to investigate. Choices choices.

Regards,
René

Hi Bruce,

As the Text and HTML string in Send Email turned to StringTheory objects, I will have to add an extension to my procedures accomodate these fields.
But how do I do that?

Normally I add a local StringTheory object like ST to a procedure. Assigning a vaule is done by st.setvalue('tralala') .
In the SendEmail documentation (12.10 my current version) I see something like: parms.pEmailMessageTextST.SetValue('Tralala')

The example, Web11, is not up to date using the StringTheory way of doing things.
So how do I define the parms.pEmailMessageTextST object in my procedure?

Cheers,
René

p.s.
Thanks for las Friday's tip on double clicking an error and jumping to the embed code in stead of the generated code.

Ok thanks,
There will be some writing going on. So for now I stick to tps.
Maybe later I'll upgrade to SQL (heavy).

Hi Bruce,

Can I use SQLite for a WebServer app?
"Of course you can" you will say.
But is it wise /smart? Are there restrictions that could keep me from doing so.

Well, since you're asking....

In the Palmtree theme the browse lines look a bit stacked together.
I think that is because the buttons exactly fit the line height.
I guess I can fix that by tweaking the button size a bit in the css definitions?
I will get to you about this during the webinar this afternoon.
I have a question about tweaking CSS in general.

Cheers,
René

Thanks

Ok Bruce,

That’s great. I will make the adjustments for the footer and wait for the update for the other issues.
Thanks a lot.

Ok,
I’ send my question in and be there.
It is the Palmtree theme I am using, not the Base.
I will try the base theme anyway.
My custom.css only contains the tweeks you advised in an earlier response.

Cheers,
Rene

Hi Bruce,

I did what you asked and created a document which is hereby attached.
Please be aware that all I wrote/write is not critisism. I absolutely love the way
NetTalk is evolving and I have the utmost admiration for what you have accomplished here.
I am still sad about the fact that Covid spoiled my trip to SA. I was very much looking forward to
meeting you all.

Cheers,
Rene

Thanks,

Now I have one more hurdle:
In the browse I have a Checkbox (String with checkbox EIP) button which is still too high and therefore causing my lines to be too high. And it looks like I cannot change its properties. If I could, that would be the solution.

I tried to use the bare checkbox but that is just awfull and it seems like there is something wrong with its styling.
It is twice as high as it is wide. If that could be fixed I would be very happy..

So the next thing I tried was a inline button with a conditioned check-icon.
I have the icon conditioned by using a CHOOSE(conditionfield=1, 'check', '') and use the client side code (on click) to toggle the conditionfield value and thus the button appearance.
The button without the check-icon looks fine but the button with the check-icon messes everything up again.

For progress sake, finally I went for plain text (YES/NO) in stead of a button of some sort.
To change the value I have to update the conditionfield using the update form.

I like a buttoned option better though.

I hope you can give me some useful tips.

Cheers,
Rene

Ok Bruce,

I am currently using PalmTree.
I like the colorsettings.
BTW I checked out your NT12 presentation and I think the Themer, combined with the fact that the customer can
run along in that stage of tweaking the style, is a real match winner.

Hi,

I found the themer and will try to find a solution there first.
In the mean time one question:
When I save the theme I have created, is it saved in the Themes folder?
What happens when a new build of NetTalk is published and installed?
