Stored procedures are database dependant, so there is no way to add support in an independant way to the zApp controls. You'd need to specify them using SQL syntax just the way you normally do with your database. Unless I'm missing something, you don't need anything special in zApp to do this. |
Well, when needed I can just instantiate the ADO.Command object in VBScript, anyways. I am thinking about how I can eventually give a demonstration to my bosses. I am trying to anticipate their questions at this point. |

OK, cool, I got the zMemo HTML stuff working today.
The HTML import routines (used when you set the HTML property of a zMemo to a string), now supports the following features that it didn't used to:
- Supports the <DL>, <DT>, <DD> tags for description lists. I don't know why a lot of HTML tools don't support these tags. I love them and use the *all* the time. Even support for DL lists in Dreamweaver is poor. Don't know why.
- multiple <BR> tags work properly to add additional blank lines
- added support for the CLASS="name" tag in the <DIV> and <SPAN> tags to access named text styles
- added support for the CLASS="name" tag in the <P> tag to access named paragraph styles
- added support for the BORDER tag in the <TD> table tag to turn on or off the border for that particular cell
- added support for the STYLE tag in the <DIV> and <SPAN> tags. The supported STYLE attributes are: font-family, font-size, font-style, font-weight, color.
- added the OnJump event handler to control what happens when a user clicks on a hyperlink within the memo.
I also fixed a lot of problems with the TREE.DB control. It basically wasn't working at all in the current build. The new build fixes all of the problems I could find and adds support to the TREE.DB for the same events defined for the normal TREE control.
I also added zTemplate support to the zLabel control. So you can do stuff like this:
Label.Caption = "<B>{#databasefield#}</B>"
to access database fields within your label caption.
The offline Documentation Viewer program is now basically complete and working great. So now I just have another day's worth of miscellaneous fixes and I should be ready for the release. Monday is still looking like my best guess. |

No, Monday's release with the the PUBLIC version...no more Beta!!!
Oh, and because I'm so thrilled with it, here is a screen shot of the zApp Documentation Viewer:
When I'm convinced that it's ready, I'll post the source code over in the Demos area. |

Mondays release is a public final? Isn't that dangerous as there might still be lingering bugs that haven't been tested? (Not that I think this will happen, but i'm always the cautious type)

Well, 1) there are always bugs, and 2) I'll probably do a CVS release tomorrow. But zApp has been very stable for quite a while now, and it's mainly been a matter of getting the functionality that I wanted into the public release and having the documentation mostly done.
