Newbie asks about database publishing

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

Hi,

Please excuse my "newbie"-ness.

I'm relatively new to FM, having written a half dozen fairly rudimentary databases for simple record keeping. I want to expand my abilities to encompass web publishing of a current database.

This database is a large set of images (in container fields) and text. I want to be able to have a user enter search terms to find images associated with various key words. Unfortunately, FM 8.5 doesn't allow me to "publish" the contents of container fields.

Since I am a newbie, I'm not familliar with how the experienced folks create such databases.

What steps do I need to go through to get such a thing up and running?
