    Standards compliant DIV roll-overs?

    oops, that css code should read ".test" not ".track"

    Standards compliant DIV roll-overs?

    I have a page with a bunch of divs with a roll-over effect using onMouseOver and onMouseOut. I also have an onMouseClick event. Is there a way to do the roll-overs (and maybe the onClick) that will be viewable in most/all browsers? I know Mozilla supports the :hover pseudo-class, but i...

    Css and tabular data

    Tables are for tabular data. The reason why CSS purists tend to dislike them is because they are very frequently inappropriately used for layout, not tabular data. If the data you want to format is in fact tabular, then by all means, use a table. If you just want a layout that is similar but...

    Sendind HTML to a browser window, w/o creating a page?

    Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to open a browser window that contains some HTML, without actually creating/loading an actual .html file. For example, I know this won't work, but something like this would be great: window.open("<html><body>hello world!</body></html>"); Thanks, Dan

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    Yeah, I guess so. I just feel like it's unneccessarily complicated. So I'd like to demystify the process for people who'd like to run some VFP code in a website. Maybe I'm trying to take the easy way out, but I don't feel like everyone needs to have an in-depth understanding of web services...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    Ah, I didn't publish the DLL using the web service wizard in VFP, as in your tutorial. I get the error "SOAP toolkit must be installed" when I try to use the web service wizard. So I installed the SOAP toolkit 3.0 from microsoft.com and I still get the error. Ack! I'm destined to fail...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    um, I meant "rusty" not "rurty." So I finally figured out how to install the dll/tlb as a COM+ application using the component services manager. It's still not working for me (via localhost) Did you modify the code of the class definition at all? I just built the dll as a multi-threaded DLL...

    My French is a bit rurty... ;) How do you install/register a DLL as a COM+? Not with REGSVR32?

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    I installed Sambar and tried to test this... when i open the html file from the sambar docs folder in IE it works, but if I try to access the exact same html file as as http://localhost/test.html i get an error, ActiveX can't create the object. Any ideas?

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    So, Mike, it works? Just HTML,VBScript, and a COM DLL? No Client-side installation/registration required?

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    Thanks Bill! Would Sambar be easier than just installing the IIS component? I've never run a server before. Is it neccessary that I have a computer that is dedicated as a server? I only plan on using it for casual testing, is it OK if it is my main home PC? Or behind a router? I'm decent...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    I have a remote host to test on, but I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out if I can register my COM server. If you have a better means to test this, please do. Thanks! Also, feel free to use my super simple DLL/VBScript example to test. I'm sure you're already aware of this, but you will...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    So, these are the key rules for using CREATEOBJECTEX()? - the web host and client must both have VFP installed. - the web host must have the COM server registered (and maybe the client as well, or just the type library?) Is this accurate? Is there any method that doesn't require the client...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    I've played with perl a bit in the past... are you saying that there is a way to access a VFP DLL using a Perl script? If so, that would be best for me, certainly the simplest. Most web hosts support Perl, while fewer support ASP (mine doesn't), and virtually none support FOXISAPI. Are you...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    I may have to build it as an out-process EXE instead of an in-process DLL. I read somewhere that the in-process DLL may have to run on the Client machine, because it needs to share the client app's memory space. Whereas the EXE runs in its own memory space, so it can reside on the server. I'm...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    Thanks Mike. I believe that this can work with the dll only registered on the server. I'm going to test this on a web server and if it works, an FAQ will be born.

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    If you read my original post carefully, I am asking a very simple question. How to access VFP code through a browser. I have NO interest in designing an entire website. just one form that submits very few parameters to a VFP class and gets something back from it. Here's a more specific...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    First of all, Mike, ouch... I spent a lot of time trying to do this simply with a vfp COM DLL and vbscript, so I'm sorry if you feel that I'm just looking for hand outs. I just wish that it was possible to do this without having to run your own web server. I used to be puzzled as to why VFP...

    Challenge: Simplest VFP web application EVER!

    How far did I get with what? I'm still waiting for suggestiongs. I hit a brick wall with the VBScript COM DLL route, as I noted above.
