browser application

Postby zztop » Thu Oct 19, 2006 11:53 pm

I would like to build a simple Web database application. An internet user logs on to my site. inputs a query paramater and the result is displayed. Also an entry form maybe needed where user can modify existing data. I do not want user to download plugins or enable pop-up. All user need is standard browser such as ms explorer or firefox. once again no downloads no plug-ins. Can it be done. Thank you kindly in advance

Yes very possible with no downloads/no plugins; all available within the browser for the client when using Servoy 3.
Cool thing is that if you have 'power' users who are managing/updating/adding new records 8 hours a day they instead can use the thin client version. This is a download but, as in any browser vs application discussion, there are numerous advantages to using an application. But with Servoy you get a choice either browser-based or thin client: yet the same code for both, run from the same server, deployed at the same time and either can be chosen.

If it is that simple, you may consider using JSP. For very simple applications, you can use just 1 JSP page, and have Servoy do all of the work. You can see an example at http://forum.servoy.com/viewtopic.php?t=6886 . Keep in mind, that way only uses 1 license, and processes in a queue...one after the other.
