Andre,

I'm just a little surprised that with as powerful as Rev is,
we are still forced to use the older solutions.

Thanks for the clarification anyway.


Rick

I am not sure what you mean by 'older solutions'.
RevServer is bound by the features and functions of browsers and the standards that they follow. The newest standards are HTML5, CSS3, etc. This is how browsers operate. Microsoft has done the experiment of deviating from such standards, teaching us that this is not a good long term strategy.

On the desktop app/exe side, programmers are free to create their own protocols, interfaces, and functions. In that case, the marketplace will choose the 'winners'.

Rick,

There is no way around this.

RevServer is not like the desktop engine, there is no GUI. Actually the
whole web is like this, you communicate using stateless transactions
exchanging what is basically text. What you do is send a form to the browser with the correct encoding and inputs and then you decode back this form.

check out a little document on the web called "HTTP made really easy" to understand more about the underlining protocol and then check out w3schools
website on HTML, CSS and Javascript.

With the clear picture in mind, check out the MVC paradigm which is the one that maps better to RevServer with HTML/CSS/JS being the View and RevServer,
the controller

Hi Matthias,

This is an interesting solution.  It uses a combination
of javascript, irev, etc..  I installed the code, and it doesn't
want to work just yet.  It's telling me that the form isn't
supported.

Looks like it will only work with a multi-part form?
I'll make one and try it again.

Any more documentation on this solution?

Anything solution using pure irev or that's a little more simple out
there?

Thanks,

Rick
