Another approach, much faster now! FileMaker Go barcode - example II https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKW5nTwMn3I&feature=plcp

Thanks Agnes, I know the alternatives, but I'm doing this for a reason. As promised, here is the guide for the FileMaker Go barcode example. To decode the barcode, I send picture to the server (in my example via net without using FMS) that performs the actual analysis and decoding and then sends back the result. There are two ways to do this; with iOS 6 media uploads without using FMS or with containers and FMS. You'll need the following: 1) Zbar source code (the binary for OS X is not available) 2) ImageMagick source code (the binary for OS X is not available) 3) Xcode and Command Line Tools for Xcode (needed to compile the Zbar and ImageMagick) 4) Apache and PHP 5) FileMaker file and PHP/HTML/CSS/JS file I. Download and Install Xcode and Command Line Tools for Xcode II. Download ImageMagick source code, unpack and compile III. Download Zbar source code, unpack and compile (without Python, GTK, QT and disable video) IV. Enable PHP on OS X and change maximum size of post data to 5MB V. Run Web Sharing in OS X Next, create PHP file upload script, set opacity for input type: file to zero, disable format detection with meta tag and prevent scrolling with JS (in Mobile Safari), write JS for auto-submit and run shell script to run Zbar to decode and return the result. Then create a FileMaker file with WebViewer object to display previously created file with trigger OnObjectExit to get a string from WebViewer into field and to do the search.

My FileMaker Go barcode example without using any iOS barcode reader app and it supports EAN-8/13, UPC-A/E, Code-39/128 and QR Code. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0GSczzMpv0 I hope you like it. PS: I will post later step-by-step guide.

I have the same problem with FileMaker Pro 11v3 on Windows Vista! Any solution?

Update: Import Records from File works, but not from HTTP request.

Hi! I am getting an XML parse error when attempting to use Import Records. Problem occurs only on one computer (Windows Vista, FileMaker Pro 11v3). It works normally on other computers (Macs and PCs). ---------- XML parsing error: invalid document structure Line Number: 1 Column Number : 1 ---------- XML data: ---------- <FMPXMLRESULT xmlns="http://www.filemaker.com/fmpxmlresult"> <ERRORCODE>0</ERRORCODE> <PRODUCT BUILD="03-05-2010" NAME="FileMaker" VERSION="ProAdvanced 11.0v1"/> <DATABASE DATEFORMAT="D.m.yyyy" LAYOUT="" NAME="" RECORDS="1" TIMEFORMAT="k:mm:ss "/> <METADATA> <FIELD EMPTYOK="YES" MAXREPEAT="1" NAME="internet" TYPE="NUMBER"/> </METADATA> <RESULTSET FOUND="1"> <ROW MODID="0" RECORDID="1"> <COL> <DATA>1</DATA> </COL> </ROW> </RESULTSET> </FMPXMLRESULT> ----------

same problem here, but without solution ;)

is there a way i can check an ODBC connection before i actually attempt to connect to it? I would need to check that it is actually there and then test connect it to make sure it worked...

i am looking also for auto update solution. do you know a way how to do this? maybe a hint? :-) http://fmforums.com/forum/showtopic.php?tid/207472/

you are so great :-) this is really awesome! tnx a lot!

on a web site or it can be in database (on internet). but i want to solve the problem without ODBC drivers or any external solutions. is this possible?

tnx. hm i am planning to make auto update for my solutions within FileMaker, but the cost of this plugin is to high and not for my porpoise. what can you suggest, how to make this within FileMaker, without AppleScript (maybe only to delete old version and run new version) or program language like C. exemple .. 1. user will be notified about new update 2. user can choice to upgrade within FileMaker: - this will download file (with status download completed to proceed with other steps), export data, delete old version of FM solution, run new version and import data

it is possible to implement some kind of ftp support? i would like to use: - transfer and download with status by the end; like it is completed tnx for help in advance!

tnx, it works! is there a way to not use a webviewer? i just need to retrieve data and not webviewer in layout.

hi everyone. it is possible to retrieve data from webviewer? i would like to do next: 1. user type in id field number 6 2. we use user number and go to site whatever?id=6 3. we show result in webviewer .. this can be name "john" 4. we use name "john" in another script or can i retrieve data in some other way over the internet? without odbc. tnx in advance!

what is wrong with this update statement .. "UPDATE events SET title='" & editor::title & "', desc = '" & editor::desc & "' WHERE id='" & editor::id & "'" FileMaker say - ODBC Error: [MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver][mysqld-5.1.34]You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'desc = 'test' WHERE id = '721'" at line 1 tnx for help in advance!
