PixiewebŪ - It's Easy With Our GUI Bulding Tools

Downloads Field-By-Field

PixieWeb is so easy to use. The following is an explanation of the steps required to submit this page View Submitted page to a PICK database for processing. The data entered on the page is written to a PICK data base when the "Register" button is clicked. The process starts with a request to start a .HTM page which displays the empty FORM. "HTML start" is a page where a user logs in or enters a query. Write it in an HTML editor, eg "Frontpage", or adapt our examples. View HTML Code. The FORM ACTION command requests to use the ASP script "JobNewProcess.asp". You may have to "right-click" the new window to view the source code "ASP Script Pages". Queries or even complete apps. can be written with these. Or if you prefer to mostly use PICKBASIC(tm) or similar MV BASICs, one of our supplied communication-agent scripts can run the app. The ASP script "JobNewProcess.asp", View ASP Code. is our starting point. The key feature in this script is that the PICK program "WebJobWrite" is executed to write the data to a PICK file. But first the ASP script logs on to PICK and checks to ensure a working connection is made. The PICK program called from the ASP acts as a back-server program which is executed to connect to the Telnet session set up by PixieWeb. It's input or output is synchronised with the ASP. The PICK program "WebJobWrite", PICKBasic Code. is a program that writes the data from the ASP to a file called "CUST" (could be any file) on the PICK server. So there it is, the three basic processes to get going on the web: HTM ---> ASP ---> PickBasic Each of these are provided free of charge to help you get started. You can see for yourself, that by changing the contents you can write your own non-persistent, batch oriented applications. Reverse the above process and data can be read from PICK and written to a HTM page on the web.
