    I did a lot searching and tried many, but the only thing I get to work to redirect the browser upon the server disconnect to the web client is modify the wed direct home page. (Warning!!! Back up the files before modify first) This way you can recover if you mess up. ON Windows file is here. C:\Program Files\FileMaker\FileMaker Server\Web Publishing\publishing-engine\jwpc-tomcat\fmi\VAADIN\launchcenter\home.html edit the page and make it start with notepad or Wordpad or text Directly under the <head> statement insert the following lines (Change this Yoursitehere.com/ to your site or filename, 2 places) <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://YourSiteHere.com/"> <script type="text/javascript"> window.location.href = "http://YourSiteHere.com/" </script> after the WebD file times out instead of landing on the WEBD filelist page you get redirected to the url= I have tested on a live server and my site is the companies intranet home page and it works for me. Sorry I don't know where it is on a Mac

    Answer, In case you are interested. Problem drilled down to Exchange is only allowing FileMaker to send tto receipients that are within their own domain name. Every other domain gets blocked. So it is a relay problem on the Exchange server.

    Using FileMaker 11 Sever, Advanced, Client and IWP smtp script command when options are added works correctly from IWP but not from the FileMaker client. Are there settings in Exchange that are blocking FileMaker Pro to send mail using the smtp option. This problem is at a client and I dont get the privledge of looking into exchange. Any Ideas

    OK, I think finally got you, Sorry you had to drag it over to another forum. A lot of belong to multiple forums and Help sites, Anyway heres what I did. 1] changed on_off field to correct table name You did not change it when you set second portal 2] Disabled auto calcultion w/ replace on field on_off 3] Since you have version 10, I set up a script trigger on the gCategoryFilter field so when you modify it and it = show all it will run the shaow all script. 4]Modified the show all script to go to Name tab when executed. 5] Changed both relationships (removed cFilterKey < = and > =. I did not see the need for it. 6]fixed overlapping tabs I hope and think I finally got what you are driving at. Portal2.zip

    Anyone else seeing this. On vista after going in and out of layout mode multiple times, it appears. Close and re-open it's gone.

    Try this, go here StarrData Downloads Download the SubSummarry Report demo. The data is old but it tracks how much is still owed by custom and invoice 30/45/60/90 days

    For immediate release Announcing Capture Custom Functions (Free) Capture Custom Functions is a new Starr Data FileMaker File that allows you to store your functions in a table. The file has an auto download feature that grabs new custom functions as they are posted from the web each time you open the file. In another table, you can store your own Custom Functions from your other files. What is neat about this system is that, at the press of a button you can put the function on the clipboard and carry it to another file. Or at the press of another button you can email a function to a FileMaker friend. After you download, feel free to send us your favorite custom function. The email address is located on the about page on the site. The instructions PDF will also be in the download zip. System requirements for this file are FileMaker 9.0 or Higher. It may work on FileMaker version 8.5, which it is not supported, so calculations may be unstable. Please visit http://starrdata.com press the custom functions button on the home page and follow through to the actual download. We ask that you fill the download form accurately. This information will not be shared with anyone. It is simply used to notify you of updates. Note: This system is still not the state of the art system that FileMaker Custom Functions should be. But it is a heck of a lot easier than the current way we do it. Also note Starr Data does not endorse any of the custom functions downloaded. If there is an error or it does not work, Please contact the developer of the function. Sincerely Robert Schaub www.starrdata.com rtschaub@starrdata.com

    This year I built a system where a person only exists one time but may be asscioated with more than one organization. Hers's a pdf link that may give ou the idea. http://starrdata.com/Starr_Data_Samples/People%20Connector.pdf

    Here's an example I did, In fact the filename is exactly like your post name. http://starrdata.com/downloads.htm Only problem is it require 9 or higher. Your profile say FM 8

    Follow up Best solutions so far GetLayoutObjectAttribute ( "webviewer";"content" ) and a custonm function to parse the content you want out of the html. This is the option I choose, I fished through the hmtl and got what I need to parse and move to fields in FileMaker or 360Works has a plugin called WebAssistant which will grab the html and the strip the tags. This works great except it also strips all extra carrige returns which in some cases it is need to save them. Funny thing is if you copy a sting where returns are know to a non FM app like Word the returns are there but not in FM. Anyway a good tool with lots of other functions.
  16. Robert Schaub
    Yes I did try that. I get nothing from the web. However it does copy everything else on th record.

    I am looking for an easy way to copy data from a web viewer. If I right click on the WV and choose [select All], Then a soft right click and choose [Copy] I can then paste it and parse out the content I want to use. I need a way to automate this because there are a thousand records. I tried GetLayoutObjectAttribut( "webviewer" ; "source" ) this only grabs the website address , which I already know , it's in the web viewer. I also tried GetLayoutObjectAttribut( "webviewer" ; "content" ) Which returns html. Which makes parsing a real P.I.A. Anyone got any ideas on hoe to automate this?
  18. Robert Schaub
    Well more work is needed , will come back later. Still need to set var. or else it returns to default. Arrrrrrgah

    In the mean time this CF works good if tabs are not nested http://www.briandunning.com/cf/692 With that you can save the steps of set a varible of the tab you are leaving from.. Upon return in the script you would now use Go To Object TableName::CF_Field
  20. Robert Schaub
    But wouldn't it be cool if FileMaker let your current tab up without scripting?
  21. Robert Schaub
    SeedCode is only Layout specific... It does not track on records level... Cool but not all the way there yet. Open and close windows? I would rather hold it in a Variable or a global.... Can you trust all your users to close the window? Will they navigate as you hope or simply go through the window toolbar leaving window open ,... which then may cause an error becuase it is being modified in another window.

    Here's a reason, You have 5 tabs. Each tab contains the same portal sorted 5 different ways. To sort is a simple go to object. I sort by the city which brings me to tab 3. I navigate form the people screen to the Organizations screen. If I don't store the tab I left the people screen somewhere upon returning to the people screen it reverts back to the default tab (which is sorted another way) and I lose my place. What I beleive the oringinal question was. How can I return to the same tab without using scripting and variables or globals for each time I navigate forth and back? (Although he never said it), I know because I had the same situation in many files with many tabs. Without a work around to return to the tab you left on would be nice. Later I will try Steven's CF suggestion.

    Sorry I thought you meant Get ( ActiveLayoutObjectName ) Thsi function is as good a non global variable and only works if you script it with a Go To Object. Just clicking on a Tab does not update the function as it does wit a field that is a named object . Once you click somewhere else it vanishes I looked into GetLayoutObjectAttribute... which BTW is not listed with the Get Functions.... Anyway I came up with this GetLayoutObjectAttribute ("Tab 1" ;"isFrontTabPanel" ) Which is still a pain because it returns 1 for yes 0 for NO. What if there are 20 tabs? Unless there is a better way I don't know about. Comment, what do you suggest? I did see a sample that uses a plugin that does the trick , I will look for it.
  24. Robert Schaub
    Not yet... That is high on my wish list too. Look into the GetLayoutObjectAttribute () function. Does not work with tab sets because it does not see it as an object. Even with the fact that you can name tabs using the object tool.
  25. Robert Schaub
    Thanks I have been using Get(RecordNumber), I works good, except when I GTRR SRRO the record number could be 937. But SRRO makes it 1 or the record number in the found set of related. If I turn of the SRRO option it could mess up reports.
