Thanks Bruce,
This works fine. I just pointed the custom.css to his Web Server (which is probably IIS) and he can make changes to his hearts content. Real nice way to collaborate over long distances.
Cheers.

HI Bruce,
When I try to use an url for the styles, i get a leading '/'  which is probably causing me grief. See below:

Thanks Bruce. Option a) is a problem because it is tied to an internal SQL db.
Option b) requires that I setup FTP on this server, which I really didn't want to open up.
Option c) would be perfect if it works.  ;D ;D

I have a chap who is pretty good at style sheets. Infinitely better than I am. I thought that the Browser would automatically download the style sheets onto his local machine with Nettalk 5 Web server and use the local ones. Did I misunderstand this process?
 In effect I was hoping that he could modify the local css sheets and he could see his changes, but it appears that the Nettalk webserver always goes back to the server for the css when a page is refreshed. Is there something I can do that would enable him to experiment with the CSS without giving him full access to my Server directories?

Thanks Bruce,
I'll try upgrading my dev environment from PR 26 to 29 or 30.

Thanks Alan,
That worked perfectly.

Hi Bruce, any update on this?

Using the invoice example, if you skip a required field, and then enter the correct data,
you must then click the Submit button Twice before it will accept the record.
I'm guessing that it wants to validate the entry in the required field on the first click, and then accept the record on the second click.
Our end user 'the client ' thinks we should accept the entry with one click of submit.
Having a hard time convincing him otherwise. :)

Hi Folks,

I have a help file (test.pdf) that I have placed in the URL for a Menu item called Help.
The pdf file opens fine, but when I hit the back button, my previous page is outdated.

Is there any way to tell Nettalk to open the test.pdf in a separate Window (Brower Tab), so they can have both the PDF and the web site open at the same time?

Look forward to any suggestions.
Brian

Thanks Bruce,
I'll try this.

Hi Folks,

I'm  just starting to figure out that the look and feel of Nettalk apps is really tied up in the style sheets.
New territory for me.
Are there any quick tips for editing the style sheets (presumably netweb.css) so that I can get much narrower screens for a handheld?
Any suggestions welcomed.
Thanks,
Brian

Hi Bruce,

I modified the report in example Web13.app , to include a SQL table (orders) and applied a filter to it.
On the first Print, it says No Records.
If we hit Print the second time, we get the correct report with the correct filtered records.
I have sent the  app by way of email to your attention.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Bruce,
Unfortunately it's SQL based , but it happens in Both IE and FireFox.
I'll see if I can duplicate it in a smaller app and send it to you.
This only happens on Reports with long filters.

ie      Fil:field1 = LOC:Field1 and Fil:Date >= LOC:StartDate and Fil:Date <= LOC:EndDate

I can re-arrange  the 3 conditions forwards and backwards,

ie  Fil:Date <=LOC:EndDate and Fil:Field1 = LOC:Field1  and  Fil:Date  <= LOC:StartDate

and it will still work on the second pressing of PRINT


Now the weird part. If I only include two conditions in the filter (any Two) the Reports prints every time on JUST ONE click of the Print Button, and no Page CANNOT BE FOUND error on that first click.

After that Initial PRINT (and error) , the second, 3rd, 4th, attempt will always work, even as I'm changing the date filter parameters. It is only thet FIRST attempt with a 3 condition filter that it chokes.

It's almost as though it has to go through the Report Process once to capture the last part of a 3 part  filter because the order of the condition in the filter doesn't seem to matter, just that there are more than two conditions.

Please see image. I have fought with this for 3 days and after an enormous number of iterations , I am now of the belief that there is a problem calling the Report on the first print. If I press the Print button a second time, without changing a single thing, the report prints fine.

Why must I print the Report twice to get rid of the  PAGE Cannot be Found, error.

I have built and rebuilt this report so many times, I'm about to tell the client they just have to Press the Print button twice.

Has anyone else seen this problem?

Hi folks,

I have a NetWebForm that I use to capture a FromDate and a Todate.

I have a button on that same Netwebform that calls a Report.
This is my Report filter.
ORD1:ClientID=LOC:Client_ID and ORD1:OrderDate  >=  LOC:FROMDate  AND  ORD1:OrderDate <= LOC:ToDate

 I've checked that I have valid Clarion dates in both LOC:FROMDate and LOC:ToDate after capturing it in code at the following embed point:

Prime Report Options When run  in Web mode:

Loc:FromDate =  p_web.dformat(p_web.GetValue('FromDate'),p_web.site.DatePicture)    !Set Date variables
Loc:ToDate   =  p_web.dformat(p_web.GetValue('ToDate'),p_web.site.DatePicture)

This filter fails the first time I run the report. If I cancel the pop up Report viewer window, and re-run the report without changing the two date range fields on the Initial NetWebForm,  the filter works fine.

Why would this report  filter work the second time, and not the first?
ORD1:ClientID=LOC:Client_ID and ORD1:OrderDate  >=  LOC:FROMDate  AND  ORD1:OrderDate <= LOC:ToDate

Hi Bruce,
Using ABC standard Clarion report template.

I just tried this and it worked, althoug I noticed that IE posts an Error 404 Page not found on the IE tab, just before the PDF is generated.
The PDF generates and is viewable, but that error is visible on the tab before it displays.

I have to take another look at my LOC:ToDate variable to figure out why it causes the entire report to fail into a 404 error page not found.


THIS WORKS:

ORD1:ClientID=LOC:Client_ID and ORD1:OrderDate  >=  LOC:FROMDate  AND  ORD1:OrderDate <= 76556
