DOES CDML work with bound files?

[rabiddg]

does anyone know if CDML tags change when you start using a bound file (a runtime file created in developer)?

everything worked in a regular fmp file, and now that i've converted the database to a standalone, i get an error that file "/path/path/path/FMPro" cannot be found.

my guess is that the CDML tags need to change, but which ones do i start tweaking? (i did, obviously specify the name of the new database in the tags)

would much appreciate any hints!

What is serving the data to the web?

No. The bound app doesn't have web companion.

If the "bound app" is hosted on FM 5 server and FM Unlimited is serving that to web, why not?

How would I know, I'm only guessing! ;-)

Let us say that you have developed this solution on a Mac using a fake lan, tcp/ip address: http://127.0.0.1/fmpro....

Now I want to run your runtime solution on my machine. And one of two conditions exist on my machine; (1) I don't have a fake lan setup, (2) I do have a fake lan setup, but the address of my fake lan is not set to tcp/ip 127.0.0.1. How does your solution set the fake lan on my machine so that your solution can reach the desired address? I don't know. I don't have an answer for you, unfortunately.

Clearly, with a runtime solution, it is not to be hosted over the web, but to run as a stand-alone. All runtime is is a very limited version of FileMaker designed to allow the presentation of a FileMaker solution on machines which do not have FileMaker.

I don't know if it can work in conjunction with a fake-lan.
