Message from: "fleeingtoelude" Hello Everyone, I've just recently discovered uniGUI and extPascal. I must say, this is something close to a revolution for web apps. The seamless integration is wonderful; good work Farshad! For a learning project, I am building a simple form using data aware controls to enable data entry into a single table in a MySQL database. I have basic filtering capability to locate the desired record, and data entry fields to edit the record. Currently, all of my DataSources, DataSets and Providers are in the ServerModule. Linking the Uni data aware components up was simple, and a basic data entry app was created in less than 30 minutes. That's RAD! However, it does not seem to be a multi-user app yet. Since everything is piped through the same DataSource, filtering gets applied to all connected clients. How would I separate clients in this type of an app? Create a Form and ClientDataset for each connection? Is there a mechanism to manage such an app? .

Message from: "Andrew Tierney" The wizard creates a web application with a Main window that has Max/Min/Close buttons and a border. The buttons can easily be removed via properties... But how do you make the 1st form/main contain no borders ? It would be nice to start with a clean page, then only show the window/popups on effectively the desktop. Regards Andrew .

This should solve it: if WebMode then F:=TMainForm(TUniExtForm(UniApplication.FindComponent('MainForm')).FormObject) else F:=TMainForm(UniApplication.FindComponent('MainForm')); F.UniLabel1.Caption:='abc'; Well, as you can see it is not very straightforward. I've started a new branch and trying to redesign library core, so hopefully, such type confusions between VCL and WEB will no longer exist. .

In the web implementation I get an access violation if I try to write to anything on the 'found' form. All its components are nil in the debugwindow. // fine in vcl.

I had thought originally of a text message for web sessions. An instance of a form could have the choice of listening to messages recevied by its session. All the best Harry -- .
