Spotlight on Summit Sessions - Lightning Sessions

Lightning Sessions are concise, 10-minute sessions focused on specifc
areas of development including:

* The Pseudocode Programming Process - What is it and how is it used to
design and provide detailed comments for a method? What advantages does
it provide?

* Automagic creation of methods - How to create 70 methods automagically
to set up development of a module.

* 4D SVG tips and tricks - SVG is simply a collection of XML elements
following the SVG specification. This talk will show you how to maximize
use of the 4D SVG Component.

These Lightning Sessions are just a sample of the over 100 technical
sessions being presented at the 4D Summit 2009, October 6-9 in Atlanta.

This week's topic: Dynamic Detail Forms

This Technical Note uses new features of 4D v11 SQL to build a solution
to the problem of creating forms on the fly. Dynamic Detail Forms are
created with HTML, then a mix of 4D commands and JavaScript are used to
handle form events. They are then displayed in 4D v11 SQL’s Web Area,
and the Web Area’s JavaScript execution feature is used to get data from
the HTML form. This Technical Note includes a component that offers an
“out of the box” solution with a simple detail form. There are also
shared component methods which can be used in your own custom detail forms.
