Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Embedded UX Within a5w Page Formatting

    I have a UX component embedded on an a5w page and I want to retain the layout (style) of the UX component. How would I go about doing this? the current style is about as plain as it can be, and I need the buttons, lists and panel headers to be more similar to those you would be used to seeing on a mobile device.

    Re: Embedded UX Within a5w Page Formatting

    On the a5w page you should find a tag similar to this:

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/a5V12/css/MobGray/style.css">

    Change it as needed to point to the style folder you are using.

    Also, you may see similar to this:

    <body class="MobGrayPage">

    Change the class to the one you are using in the UX,

    - or -

    try changing it to just:

    <body>

      Re: Embedded UX Within a5w Page Formatting

      Thank you Peter for your reply. I have found the codes and they have a line above saying that they will be automatically removed when the page is published. It appears to be the style I want, but why is it not being applied?

        Oh....

        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="file:///D:/Program Files (x86)/a5V12/css/iOS/style.css">

        That would imply that these are saved on my local machine, and it just so happens that a live preview of this page has the desired style on it, so I guess my question now would be How do I publish the styles and reference them for this and other pages to look at?

          Peter, thanks for putting me on the right path. My issue is resolved. I went into the folder on my local mqachine where the styles resided, copied them over to the server's CSS folder and ...

          VIOLA.

          Thank you very much.

            Yeah, sometime the css doesn't publish for some reason. Glad you got it worked out.

              Re: Embedded UX Within a5w Page Formatting

              Hey Peter, and anyone else who may know, I have a related problem.

              In the working preview of my ux (attached photo) the list and all other components in the UX looks just fine, even during a remote test. But when published, the view is drastically different. It is like the view is pulled way back. The font is really small. I am led to believe this has to do with the page itself since that is all that changed, but I am not sure. Also attached is my page's CSS file in case it helps.

              Any help would be appreciated.
