ADV: Browser-based development for filePro

[Bruce Easton]

Hello all, 

Based on what I was reading in the agenda notes for tomorrow's 
meeting it seems GUI and browser will be hot topics, so I am 
jumping the gun a bit here to let more people know about our 
soon-to-be-commercially-available product for rapid-development 
of browser-based filePro-based apps.  I'm hoping some who are 
attending the meeting tomorrow might have a few minutes to check 
out our new 'News' page that includes an live online demo of 
'fPageBuilder.'  This application is a complete development and 
runtime environment for browser-based filePro.  We are also 
completing a browser-based report writing tool.

http://websvr5.stn.com (there is a link to the application page 
in the news box on this new main page).   (This newer STN site on 
a new web server will soon become our default site, and the 
intention is that this demo remain accessible from the Products 
page.)

I'm looking forward to your feedback/questions.  (I will say 
there is one issue with the demo I am tracking down that probably 
stems from my brute-force method of porting file to our newer 
web server today :) - it is causing one custom AJAX-type function 
to not work in Mozilla, so, for best effect please use IE - I will 
try to resolve this this weekend.)

This application has been evolving for quite some time and all 
input will be taken seriously.  The demo above is running on a 
Linux web server running Apache and OneGate.  (We already have 
fPageBuilder-based apps in use in Unix, Linux and Windows 
environments.)  We hope to soon have more literature and online 
demos available on our site.  

Looking forward to seeing meeting attendees tomorrow.   

Bruce
