Web Application Deployment

by David Ringsmuth :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

Assuming HTML and Javascript, CSS, are the primary technologies, when
web-ifying a 4D Client application including the delivery of reports, what
is the preferred method for delivering to the client complex reports?

 

I can imagine a user interface where the report is defined and requested,
then a link is dynamically created pointing to the newly created PDF report,
and the browser refreshes until this PDF is "available". When it is
available the user selects it for viewing, etc.

 

I imagined processes created on a 4D server to handle the report creation.

 

Does that sound workable in an environment with hundreds of simultaneous web
users?

 

Thanks,

David

David,

You'd want to use some sort of AJAX background process to check a status flag, instead of constantly refreshing the browser page.

Once the report is generated and available, then you can replace the "waiting" with "available" and a link to the file.

Hey Gang

We have a problem with a clients site that is getting spammed quite a  
bit and we would like to implement some sort of "image style"  
verification that we have all seen on various websites we use on a  
daily basis.

Does anybody have any recommendations (code examples etc) of these  
image generation systems.    If you have a library or something that  
you would be will to share, please let me know.

Regards,

Mike Erickson, President

Have you used this with A4D?   Certainly looks like it will do the  
trick!

Will see if I find something in my archives

Mike,

Their website has a resources and plugins page:
http://recaptcha.net/resources.html

They have classes for ASP.net, PHP, etc. that might be useful examples
if you end up having to write the Active4D code. I looked at the PHP
example and it appears that integrating this would be straightforward.

Hey gang

I have already started going down the road of integrating this into  
our project.   I will share what I come up with when I am all done.
