Weekly Digest
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,

3. Tech Note
Central
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.
This
is only a sample of the many valuable Tech Notes that are available to
4D Partners in the 4D Knowledgebase.
There are many more advantages to becoming a 4D Partner. Visit 4D Partner Central for
