Greetings! I want to know how I can create web pagesin VFP? Thanks...
 
jhourlad

Since you can create a webpage in notepad, why bother using VFP?
If you need to create a webpage based on a table, take a look at faq184-3404.

Are you talking about creating a webpage editing application like Dreamweaver or Frontpage with VFP?

jhourlad,

What sort of web page do you want to create? Do you want to copy the contents of a VFP table to an HTML table? Do you want to dump a memo field in a web page? Or what?

I'm afraid you'll have to be much more specific in your question.

Thank you guys for answering.

What I actually want to know is the step by step procedure how to create a Web application (like "Select File/New/Etc...". I've already handled projects in VFP but Web pages? Not yet...

Again, than you very much.
 
jhourlad,

Creating a web application is quite different from creating a web page. It's really too big a topic to answer in a thread like this. You will need to do some serious research.

The site that Mike Gagnon pointed you to is an excellent place to start. There are also a couple of books available on the subject -- see
for some recommendations (the one by Rick Strahl is especially worthwhile).

Good luck with this project, and do come back if you have any specific questions.

I've been exploring integrating VFP with web, with some success. For a start, I able to ftp upload and download files from VFP. I use this FTP in wininet.dll to download my website log file and upload an empty one daily via Windows builtin scheduled task.

Details of the vfp codes for ftp wininet are available at
I'm now looking at integrating http (wininet) with VFP.
