Building the best web application builder, one byte at the time
SaaS applications, also known as multi-tenant applications, are very popular these days. A single instance of the software is available to multiple customers/tenants. Each tenant's data is isolated and remains invisible to other tenants. All tenant databases have the same structure. The data is different, of course.
Tri-part events are a special code snippets that provide a convenient way of programming interactions between the browser and the webserver.
Any web application consists of two parts - server and client. The client part runs in the browser on the computer of the web site visitor. This part takes care of all user interface interactions, such as buttons, input controls, blocks of text and images. Client-side code is written in Javascript in most cases.
Server part - this code runs on the webserver itself and has direct access to the database, can send emails, read and write files to the disk. In PHPRunner-created applications server code language is PHP, ASPRunner.NET uses C# or VB.NET, ASPRunnerPro uses Classic ASP.
Most real-life tasks though require a joint action of both client and server parts. For example, the user presses a button and wants something changed in the database, or an email being sent.
Tri-part events provide a relatively easy way to create such integrated code snippets.
They consist of three parts running one after another:

There was an article posted back in 2007 in our forums that provided a solid start for many SEO-friendly URLs applications. It is about time to talk about how you can implement it in version 10.x of PHPRunner, ASPRunnerPro, and ASPRunner.NET. We have helped one of our clients to implement this solution in their project.

This is a weekend project, not much practical use but it was fun to create. Hopefully you find techniques mentioned here useful.
Some our employees need to connect to our FTP server while travelling. As an extra protection measure we maintain a whitelist of IP addresses where connection is allowed from. We thought it would be nice to convert IP addresses to geographical coordinates and display them on a map. It worth saying that IP to latitude/longitude conversion is not 100% accurate and IP addresses get re-assinged all the time. However for our task it is not really important.
By default PHPRunner/ASPRunner.NET provide "Delete selected" functionality. In some cases you need to be able to delete records individually. In this tutorial we will show how to add a delete button to each record. We will also show how to make it look as a regular edit/copy/view buttons.
1. Proceed to the List page in Page Designer and insert a button. Move it to one of grid columns. Set button style to "link-button" and choose icon "glyphicon-remove" as appears on a screenshot below.
Normally tab order is determined by the web browser based on your Add/Edit page structure. If you have a single row two-column form browser will tab through first cell edit controls first before switching to second cell. If you place each control into its own cell it will tab through first row, then second, then third etc. The point is that you want to be in control and you need to specify tab order that fits your application logic. Luckily it is easy to achieve…Continue Reading “Changing default tab order”

In version 10 you can add extra pages of the same type. For instance, besides the main edit page you can have extra edit pages named edit1, edit2 etc. The big question is how to use these additional pages in your application.
Since we created multiple edit pages lets see how we can use those. On the List page select Edit button. On the right side using 'Page' dropdown select the page this button will open.
