Message from Dave on 9/18 2003, 12:19 +00:00Image link - howtoHi I am looking to use an image link, that also has variable information taken from the other fields. eg A buy image <img src="buyit.jpg" with a hyperlink to eg www.buyme.com. I have set up a text field and imported data with the corresponding <img src> parameteres but the images don't show? If I enter the default field (in filed setup)then the image will show in the view fields section. Also I want to pull in for each record field information to be added to the link eg www.buyme.com/add.cfm?product=North+Atlantic+Marine+Chart&price=29.50 Please help, Thanks |

Message from Steve on 9/18 2003, 13:45 +00:00 EMail: steve@armadacomputers.com WWW: armadacomputers.co.uk Help with simple restricted searchI feel a little bit embarrased asking this as I learnt my trade in database programming although that was a few years ago (c/dbase III era) now Im after a quick fix solution and then I promise to learn everything I need to for future applications. I have a database on here that my staff use which works wonders for tracking customer orders, but I want to allow my customers to be able to access this databse to show specific information of the databse through a very simple screen. I want them to be able to enter a order number and for it to return a screen showing a few fields which they can only read, example order number, delivery address, expected delivery date etc. But how do I go about this if someone has a sample script that they can show me allowing me to jsut amend database names and fields to get something simple running then I would be very very grateful. Any help would be appreciated. |

Did you tried the Easy Start? http://baseportal.com/estart/index.html There you learn how to create the fields for your database. Its easy. In your case you need a fields like "Order Number" (Type: Number. Maybe of Type text. Must be sorted), "Address" (Type: text or textarea), "Expected Delivery" (Type: Date) ...etc. When you want to show the information to your customers you need a page like this:
This may look a bit confusing, but its not too hard. You can use any HTML there, what you like to format you output. Then call the page with a link like: ...baseportal.com/cgi-bin/baseportal.pl?htx=/yourname/yourpage&Order+Number==12345 And the record with the Order Number 12345 will show up. |
