August 13, 200817 yr Ello peepz, I am still trying to go through the demo of SuperContainer before proposing it to my employer to buy the license. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone would be so kind to provide me a sample of how to upload pictures which corresponds to the record view. For example, when I am viewing Record1, there must be picture1. When I view Record2, there is picture2 and so for. If picture3 is not available, I will click on the frame to upload my picture. Thanks Regards, Farah K.
August 13, 200817 yr Just set your Web Viewer URL to some unique value for each record. The URL always starts with this: http://yourIpAddress/SuperContainer/Files and then you append some unique value for the record, so your URL for records 1,2, and 3 might look like this: http://yourIpAddress/SuperContainer/Files/1 http://yourIpAddress/SuperContainer/Files/2 http://yourIpAddress/SuperContainer/Files/3 You can also choose to include additional information in the URL to organize images by folder, like this: http://yourIpAddress/SuperContainer/Files/images/1 http://yourIpAddress/SuperContainer/Files/images/2 http://yourIpAddress/SuperContainer/Files/images/3 http://yourIpAddress/SuperContainer/Files/contracts/1
August 13, 200817 yr Author Thanks Jesse for your reply. But how will the script be like if I was to upload the picture while viewing the record? I don't want to have the user go to another window or system to upload the file onto the server. Regards Farah Kong
August 13, 200817 yr You don't need any script at all - just drop a web viewer onto the same layout as the regular record and then set the URL for that web viewer. If you'd like, I can give you an example URL to use for SuperContainer running on our test server.
August 14, 200817 yr We have a public testing server that you can use. Try putting this URL into a web viewer on your layout: http://fmdemo.360works.com/SuperContainer/Files/lostgirl/1 Now just replace the '1' with an ID number from your FileMaker record, and you'll be able to store and view a separate document for each record.
