I remember developing in 800x600 or so in Delphi 3. Going to 1024x768
was a big upgrade ;-)
I use to record my videos in 800x600, with a largish font - that's a bit
painful in a modern IDE. I've just restarted making videos and have
settled on 1280x720 (720p) which is supported on YouTube.

Thanks Rodney,
I'm trying it out - not sure of living in the world of the little

without the power plug (Hello cappuccinos) for longer. My laptop only
works for about 30 minutes but I can get a good 6 hours from the netbook.

Only concern is the screen is a bit small for doing actually work

that I can
get a 1024 x 768 (or bigger) virtual screen on my netbook if needed.

I was wondering if anyone has successfully used Delphi 7 on a
netbook (win
xp). I'm heading off and will have only my netbook with me.
As I was working on a Delphi 7 project I was wondering if I could
get away
with just the little Netbook (asus eeepc 1001) and not have to
take the full
laptop.

Thanks Joylon and Todd, that has sorted that out,
... I had been wondering the way things were worded whether you could
use 3rd party things like Zeos, or if databasing capabilities were
limited strictly to only what was described in the feature matrix.
(Remembering the Turbo thingies they put out that didn't even let you
add components.)
We are charitable non-commercial (take no payments) so I take it we
would fit under the $USD1000 at all times?

Hi Rohit
When I had a play with D4PHP I fould the same
frustrations you have reported recently and had
the same problem with stuff working locally but
failing when deployed to the net. If you follow
the delpoy instructions (such as they are) then
that may be one problem in not installing the
deploy files (only a few of which surely are used
for a simple app) in the correct ind searchable
folders. Another and maybe more significant source
of errors is the fact that D4PHP assumes you are
going to have PHP 5 on the host, which may or may
not be the case - check with phpinfo() This last
one plus the poor documentation has put my D4PHP
life on hold until the situation clears - aside to
Embarcadero !! - can we have some better
documentation and examples ? - please
Best of luck
Graham Marsden

Cameron,
if someone else was asking the question I am, I might well give him
your reply too. Having invested the time in it, I haven't reached the
point where I can chuck it out and relearn something else.
Bit by bit, I have already replaced most of D4P with straight php,
html
or javascript - mostly for efficiency. The only thing left now is the
query and grid. And the panel does make it a lot easier than using
html-table manually.
Finally the debugger started working (its just temperamental), but I
don't need it now.

Graham,
I have simply not believed the deploy tool and uploaded the
complete vcl
to the web. This way, I know its not an issue.
I had wondered about the php version, but not blaming that yet.
Really the major issue is php itself - based on basic (arguably the
first kiddy language invented over 30 years ago). I cant believe
we are
using it now !! Slight misspelling of an identifier and one is
history
with errors that have nothing to do with reality. I have had ajax
stop
working. Then query->open would not work but query->active = true
would etc....
The issue of the oncreate firing multiple times turned out to be
caching
(probably by the php engine itself - nothing else makes sense) as
I had
cleared the browser cache. Once I fixed that with some html tags, the
refresh from ajax has stopped working. It no longer refreshes the
control as it used to - until the form is submitted.
I am going to have one more go at ajax based data control refresh on
another form. If that doesnt work, then I will convert all of the
delphi stuff to php. The ide is still useful as a project manager.
I finally discovered the _problem with constants_ in another file. if
there is no vcl in the page (form) then the constants work. As
soon as
vcl is involved, they are no longer visible...
I discovered the _problem with functions_ in another file. There must
be no spaces between the identifier and the bracket. Then they work.

I have a D2009 application which holds the addresses of employees
and the
customers they service.
Is there a way that I can display a map with a selected address?
Ideally, I would also like to be able to get the distance between two
addresses.
I assume that this information is available from Google or Wises,
but have
no idea how to go about accessing it. I?m guessing it will be a
Web Service,
with which I have limited experience (I have an interface to one).
Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.
Mark
