Active plug-ins
Active plug-ins are a whole new type of plug-in for dbQwikSite.
Technically speaking these plug-ins are intelligent “auto
snippets”. What they do is offer little bits of functionality to
add to your pages. Many of the V6 new features are, in fact,
active plug-ins.
Multiple Categories
Category filtering has been one of our most popular features allowing
your visitors to get lists filtered by a category. Now, we’ve gone one
better, multiple categories. Filter by category then sub-category, and
sub-sub-category and so on, all with never leaving the data list page.
Group Actions on List Page
Ever
want to make a page where users can tick, tick, tick several items and
perform an action against the selected items? Now you can.
Use standard actions, such as delete, or update a field or write your
own actions in developer edition. Supercharge your repetitive
action tasks with Group Actions.
Inline Add/Update/Delete
Want
to let your users work with records of their list page without
navigating in and out add/update pages? Inline delete has now two
new friends, inline add and inline update. Add and update forms
can now be presented as pop-up dialogs rather than separate pages, to
make working off the list page easier than ever.
Unbound Forms
Do
you have the need to collect information from your site using HTML
forms, but you really do not need to store it in a database? New
Unbound forms let you design forms that email you the user input rather
than storing in a database table. It’s a fast way to create simple web
forms.
Email Added / Edited Records
Do
you need to know when a new record is added or updated in your
database? Now you can have dbQwikSite forms automatically send
you a copy of the updates that take place on your web site.
Capcha
Stop
those pesky hackers and robots from submitting your forms, add Captcha
to your forms. Capcha is the system where graphics are displayed,
containing letters to type in before a form can be submitted..
Autocomplete
Create
input controls that look up values from your database as you type,
allowing users to find existing values without scrolling trough long
dropdown lists. Unlike dropdown lists, auto complete allow users
to enter their own values when the value they seek is not already in
the database.
RTF Editor
You
can now turn any text box control into an advanced RTF editor.
Users can create formatted text to be stored and displayed from your
database.
Quick Search
Add
s simple search right to your data list pages. Visitors can pick
a field and filter by a value without needing to go to the search page.
Multiple Value Search
Need
to search for a shirt that is either red or blue or black? V6 now
offers the ability to search for multiple search values in a single
database column.
PDF Print via Online services
Do
your visitors ask for PDF copies of the pages they see on your
site? Now you can simply add a Print PDF button to any page which
sends that page to a free PDF document creation service.
XML and JSON Services
Now you can turn any dbQwikSite data page into a web service
serving either XML or JSON data streams.
There’s nothing to do other than call your page with a special URL
parameter: return=XML or return=JSON.
