[PHP] Spammer! Re: [PHP] ANNOUNCING: Rekall V2.0.0 for Linux/UNIX....
STOP SPAMING the list. Is your product free of charge/ opensource? NO! If you are charing for your product and your source is not open, you have no place on opensource lists. This is 3rd list you are spamming. Somebody block this free-rider from this list. BTW, MSAccess can be had for less and you can run it via Wine on Linux with no problems! Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Do you want to create, edit, or update your PHP databases remotely within a nice Graphic User Interface without having to use your Web Browser, well you can do that with Rekall and last week Rekall V2.0.0 was finally released for KDE3. QT3-only, Windows and Sharp Zaurus. We even have a run time only version so that you can distribute your Rekall applications. Yes, that's true, you create applications in much the same way can with MS Access, since Rekall is a programmable database client. For more information, tutorials, HOWTOs, examples, etc. please visit http://www.rygannon.com We are pleased to announce the 2.0 release of Rekall, a personal, programmable DBMS system for Linux and Windows. Rekall is the only viable alternative to MS Access for Linux. With Rekall you will be able to quickly and easily build database applications using Rekall forms and reports. A full complement of widgets means that applications built in Rekall will be able to have the look and feel of any other application. Rekall applications can be extended in their functionality to perform virtually any task via embedded Python as a scripting language. Ever since the release of dBase many years ago, the idea of a programmable DBMS has become increasingly popular. Major systems have been written in applications like Paradox and MS Access. By focusing on the database, users are able to leverage their business knowledge into working applications. One of the limitations of the aforementioned products is that their native database didn't scale well or support multiple users very well. Rekall avoids this problem by dispensing with a native database. The biggest addition to Rekall 2.0.0 is reusable components. Rekall now comes with a selection of components that you can use in forms; these include standard buttons and navigation tools. In addition to these components, you can also construct your own for use as often as you want. You can store your components either in the database itself, or in a local area in the file system. To support reusable components, and to make it easier to script complicated forms, Rekall 2.0.0 introduces an Event/Slot mechanism (akin to Qt's Signal/Slot mechanism). This allows to place all script code which is logically associated with a particular control inside that control, and means you can copy or delete the control without worrying about copying or cleaning up script code inside other controls. Other new features in Rekall 2.0.0 include: * Static images can by displayed in forms * Data controls can appear in menu-blocks * Spin box control * Link controls can display multiple colums * Link controls can use Queries as well as tables * Event logger for debugging * Raw SQL window for direct SQL execution * Forms, Reports, etc. can run modally * Fast table filters for predefined table data display * Modal forms can be used as dialog boxes * Explanation of queries generated by Rekall * Menu and toolbar hiding * MySQL and PostgreSQL connections over SSH tunnels (Linux only) In addition, Rekall comes with a thorough demonstration database that illustrates the various features of the applications. There are actually three copies of the database, one using MySQL, one PostgreSQL and one using XBase/XBSQL. Optional drivers are currently available for DB2 and ODBC with Oracle9i coming later this summer (the Windows version is ready now). By purchasing Rekall you are getting the source for the application and free electronic updates to the core application. You get all supported platforms for one price regardless of when they are released. Rekall is priced at $79.95 for the physical package and $69.95 for the electronic package. Rekall can be purchased from www.thekompany.com/products/rekall. Rekall V2.0.0 demo version can be downloaded from http://www.rygannon.com by selecting downloads from the navigation menu or by clicking on the downloads button on the top navigration bar .

Re: [PHP] Spammer! Re: [PHP] ANNOUNCING: Rekall V2.0.0 for Linux/UNIX....
Well, lets see. I want free advertising too. How about I go to all the lists I am member of and send emails like John from Rekall did announcing widgets or services my company does. How will you react to that? We all have something to sell or advertise. Opensource or non-opensource, if you are charging for something you can not free-ride on free mailing lists, pay for adveritising. If something like that is tolerated, maybe I should start marketing my stuff on all the lists I am.

Just out of curiosity, where did you get the idea this is an open source mailing list? There are plenty of commercial PHP products that have been mentioned and recommended by list members, including Zend products. I'm not condoning posting ads to the list the way John, but I think that declaring it an open source list will discourage people who have created PHP-based systems that aren't free or open-source from contributing. -- S.

RE: [PHP] Want to move M$Access frontend to PHP/MYSQL. Need suggestions...
Why an MS Access front end? Old school talent booking agents, they do not want to see any changes, so you have to do everything in the background. Only my Dir of Ops. understands what I am talking about, since she benefits every time I move my finger. Person who originaly wrote the Access database did so much VBA in it, that I have to now re-do everything if I choose to change the front end. And I suck in Javascript, PHP came to me only from looking at examples. I am not a programmer, I am operations person. Anyway... ANy other suggestions?
