Paradox Web Stuff Topic

At one time I was very good at using Paradox, and now I am back to using it again.

Mike's Paradox book has an excellent section in the back on using web servers with Object Pal. Is there more info out there that can explain how to use .HTT files in more detail, possibly more examples?

Hello, I develop software in Corel Paradox 18 years for driving schools. At this time in Portugal, the practical lessons are recorded through a tablet where it controls the time and kilometers travelled, and this data is made available by the software manufacturer who registers these lessons in JSON. Now I need to integrate the records of practical lessons with my Paradox database. I've spent hours trying to find some information, but without success. Today I found your internet page, and how you have experience in JSON and you know the Paradox well. I write to you in the hope of helping me with some information or idea.

Been using paradox ocx as web server for over 10 yrs on server with windows server 2003(?).  Recently purchased new server.  Have Windows Server 2008 on it.  Migrated entire data and web info from old to new.  Cleaned up and tested all web pages on new server using localhost.  localhost:8081 hits paradox ocx and creates web pages perfectly. Now trying to webname:8081 to hit paradox and not working.  Probably bad description, I'm no good on the server side. Any ideas.  Why does local host see the 8081 port in the ocx but not the webname:8081? Help

Does anyone know where we can get the paradox 9 odbc driver for windows NT 4.0?

Is it possible to upload table(s) and/or file(s) to Corel Webserver using objectpal and html only.  If so, is there any example code to work with.  Thanks in advance any response. Regards, DWilson Eml: mr.wilson@usa.com

Hi, I am a Paradox developer from way back (1985 in fact) and have never really touched on the Web Server OCX much. I am wondering if anyone is using this program to any great effect and what if any problems you see with it. Pardon my ignorance here but does the activex server cope with XML, CSS and XForms? I am particularly concerned about security of using the server -i.e. can it be locked down tightly enough for real-world apps?

Has anyone utilized Paradox to post files to a SFTP site? Are you doing it directly thru Paradox or thru a 3rd party app?  and if so, what's the app? Thanks in advance for any help!,

Howdy, y'all; finally acquired a copy of Mike's P9PP. Gonna reverse engineer a Pdox4 database, at least a few new kludged features by using the Web server OCX and a few HTML forms. Currently reading ch. 25 wherein Mike recommends reading "jPdox Web Utilities," a PDF doc that's included in the Reference Center. However, can't find it anywhere on my CD. I'd be obliged if someone would send it by e-mail to jazzbaritone@yahoo.com so that I too can whip up browser-enabled Pdox apps. Thanks kindly, and happy holidays. APJ Laguna Niguel, CA.

My understanding is that Paradox 9 has a webserver built into it. It is a form called server.fsl or something. Here is my question: We only have paradox 10, if I could get my hands on the files in the :wssample: directory ( or whatever it is) Could I run those in Pdox 10? Would it work?, , Thanks Jeremy

Has anyone used secure https protocol with the Corel Web Server Control? If so, how do you setup your secure certificate.

I am trying to have a form for web users to upload pictures to Paradox..., , The form appears to work, but how do you get paradox to grab a image file from the form..., , request.getfield("picture") does not seem to work...., , Is there something I am missing???, , Thanks!!!

What the deal I cant get paradox to work with PHP, has anyone else tried this?

Hello!, , I would like to send XML to certain IP address and wait for XML., Is this possible from ObjectPal? And how?, , Thanks in advance, Marjeta

I have created a form from a basic query, which shows the amount of stock we hold in place against a number of different products.I need to email my customer this form in such a way that he can fill in call off quantities and email it back to me. Problem is, he doesn't have Paradox, so I have printed this Paradox form as a PDF then added PDF boxes to it. It's very long winded. Is there any way to send my Paradox form so that all the features of the form function outside of the Paradox environment?

JSI for Paradox is now available for download/trial or purchase., , JSI connects any 2 or more computers running Paradox 32bit (7-10) and allows them to directly share data or files., , This is NOT Paradox serving data to a Web Browser. It is direct Paradox to Paradox communication., , JSI plugs into your existing apps with a couple of simple OPAL commands., , Visit http://www.thedbaddons.com/jsip for information.

I am a novice programmer looking to access a Paradox DB from my website. The server is the web hoster Brinkster. I believe that I can work thru the manipulation of the database with Paradox's syntax(back end stuff), but I am having difficulty in actually chaining into the DB from my site.(ODBC????) Is the process at all similar to Access and SQL, where you establish a connection with a driver and DSN??, , Thanks for any help.

I know this is strange, but i am new to putting databases to the web. I have a two part question. How can I get Data from my web form to my paradox database and vice versa. Can I use a paradox script to access this info. If so how., , Sorry for being a newbie. I have been programming desktop database applications for ten years and this is the first time one of my clients has asked me to put his database onto the web., , thanks, Doug [EMAIL]warmage38@shaw.ca[/EMAIL]

Allen Troxell has helped me big style with a program near completion, users are able to use a pushButton to query their results and send them to me on email. Ultimately I would like to do this to a website (as yet not set up ). Before completion, what would be necesary for me to cover eventualities. ? can I set up a pushButton in the same way I did for Email ? I know nothing about web matters,, Paul Castelow, New Zealand. :)
