Field-free CheckboxesPosted by: Editor / Tuesday, June 2, 2009 – 9:09pm

Oh, FileMaker! How I simply love adding a new field to the database just to provide some transient user interface widget. It's a small price to pay isn't it? For such a flexible and forgiving environment? Wait a second, don't pay that price! You can have your check box interface widget without having to add any fields or any graphics. The response is snappy, the look matches the native OS and it's "Oh so easy to copy!". In this video, I show you a great technique about using a web viewer to accomplish the use of field-free check boxes. Of course, this applies not just to check boxes but any widget you can show in a web viewer. Getting data out of a web viewer isn't that easy. But the real question is, "Do you really need to?". Watch the video to see for yourself! Details: Released - 6/2/2009 / Size - 16.99 MB / Length - 17 min

. Filemaker on Windows displays web viewers with boarders and scroll bars so it doesn't look as clean on Windows as it does on the Mac. http://www.kevinmullins.com/web_checkbox.jpg Kevin . . Mod.

The download technique link points to InstantSearch2.zip file.
Seems to be a error and needs to be corrected.
