Title: Beginners Blues
Post by: bryce on September 22, 2012, 09:25:57 PM

I am just planning my first ever web development and am looking at the examples that come with Nettalk and am puzzled.  I have tried a few examples and seem to be having the same problem which I assume must be something I am doing.  If I take example 1 and on the Form Tab do the following:

Remove the form control procedure, Remove the ticks against Insert Button, Change Button and Delete Button,Remove the insert, change and delete from the list of fields to be displayed

Nothing changes.  I can still add, change and delete records.

I was expecting to end up with a browse containing no buttons and only capable of displaying data.

Can anyone explain with nothing seems to happen?

Thanks,

Bryce

Hallo Bryce,

See attached photo. You need to make modifications on browse not on form.

Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

Thanks for that.

That is where I have changed it (the Form Tab on the browse) but it doesn't seem to have any affect.

Any more ideas?

Thanks,

Bryce

Sometimes, when you make changes in a NetTalk app, the source files are not recreated properly.  This has been an issue - at least for me - going back to NT4.  Make sure you have unconditional generation turn on (This is a Clarion IDE setting).  And, what I do, is place a number in the global properties application author field and increment it every time I make a change.  For some reason this forces all template changes to be reflected in the source files.

Clear as mud huh?

To be fair to Bruce, I don't think this is a NetTalk issue.  I think it's a Clarion issue.  I seem to remember Bruce explaining it all several years ago.
