Web Server - Ask For Help / Left Justify Value of string
« on: November 03, 2024, 06:30:45 PM »
Could we have a checkbox on the validate tab of a field to left justify the field please Bruce?
Reason being I just had a case where client entered a category as ' General' for some reason.
This causes all sorts of problems because the lookup fails on the item assigning the category to, but the actual error is never reported. So it looks like it worked but didn't.
This is not the first time I've come across this.
I'm currently doing a field=LEFT(field) in validateValue but a checkbox would be way easier

a single ' may have problem, but I would not have thought so in a filter context.
Have you tried doubling up ie King''s Speech That's 2 ' not 1 "

« on: September 06, 2024, 03:41:35 PM »
I'm curious why you would want so many levels for the same level?
Could you briefly explain?
In the back of my mind is that for what you want to actually acheive there might be a better way

Hi Richard,
No I don't think it can be done the way you would like.
1. Because the 2 locations are on different machines and not really connected as such.
2. Because any access to the local system is through the browser, which tends to get locked out of doing that sort of thing for good security reasons.
You can certainly send the file as a download, but the browser and user will still need to interact with it, again for security and because the only connection between you and the user it via the browser.

Maybe you need to update the web folder?

The sub-domain has an error in javascript message across it.
That is likely the problem.

Hi Alberto,
I give it the full path name, and yes it's in the web folder.
It look like there is indeed a size problem that I'll try and pinpoint. It all works with smaller files.

Is there a file limit to the size that can be downloaded?
My exe is 162 MB I've also tried a similar sized 'just data' file in case the exe bit was causing problems and I have similar issues

Problem is: There is no downloading icon.
The downloads list doesn't contain anything new, the browser looks like it's doing something... but nothing ever happens
Update: Ichanged the file to download to favicon512.png and it worked.
But the exe does nothing, even if left for 10mins

I have a label printer helper program that I want to make available to be downloaded from the help menu of my website.
I'm trying but nothing seems to work.
I've tryed a variation of Web40 download and also just putting the exe name in the URL
The browser just hangs and seems to do nothing.
This should be simple, and I'm sure it is once I find out what I'm doing wrong
So how should I do this?

Web Server - Ask For Help / Re: Form no longer displays after file download
« on: March 13, 2024, 03:07:23 PM »
Update
After conversations with Bruce it was found this only happens when the form is called as a popup.
The problem ended up being having the blob field in the field field of the file upload control properties
changing that fixed it

Web Server - Ask For Help / Form no longer displays after file download
« on: March 12, 2024, 08:42:56 PM »
I have a webForm that works fine, mostly. I added the -File Upload- field to the form to save a file. As far as I can tell this form is almost identical to the web26 example, except that I save the file to a blob in the record.
Now the file uploads and saves, I've checked in the postgres backend and it's there.
The problem is that I can now no longer edit that row, it just comes up blank.
See attached images
I'm lost as to what's going on. Any help appreciated.

I suggest that you check if that option actually works.

Does sendEmail() have a ,PROC in the prototype ?
I think that might be needed
