Web viewer dashboard

[rivet]

Awhile ago sixfriedrice.com had a great article on using the webviewer without the web.

What was missing was a way to hyperlink back to the actual database.

Well it is now possible by calling the FMP internet protocol along with a script name, a parameter and a variable.

This example uses the FMP url to view a related record and set a field value. (hosted file only, I have to look at local file possibilities ).

Along with this feature, FMP12 has also blessed us with the ExecteSQL function which is used here to compile all the data, reducing the need for all those messy TOCs.

Enjoy.

PS. if anyone can solve my line numbering in the html layout, I would appreciate the help.

FYI local file is possible if you change the ip to :  

ip = GetAsURLEncoded ( "$" ) ;
