In this example we will use the typical Orders table to demonstrate how this API works. We will create a tab for each employee that lists her own orders only. This is how it is going to look in generated application.

Whenever you search, edit or delete data your web application issues a series of SQL queries, gets results back and displays it on the web page. Understanding the basics of SQL will help you build better apps and find errors faster.

For increased security users should change passwords every 60 days. As an administrator you need to perform two standard tasks:
We’ll show how this can be done with the help of MassMailer template. In this example we’ll be using MySQL and here is how our table with logins and passwords looks. Only users where ‘active’ field equals 1 are able to logon.
Note: this code was updated and is compatible with version 10.x of PHPRunner, ASPRunner.NET and ASPRunnerPro.
We continue series of posts that show how to make you PHPRunner/ASPRunnerPro/ASPRunner.NET apps behave in Excel-like way. In this article we’ll show how you can speed-up data entry in inline mode eliminating the need to click ‘Inline Add’ and ‘Save’ buttons multiple times.
In this post we’ll show how to spice up your application menu drawing attention to new and important items. For this purpose we’ll be using so called menu badges.
In this article we’ll show how to deploy PHPRunner or ASPRunner.NET application to Microsoft Azure cloud. I assume you already have an account with Azure, if not, you can create one here.
Experienced developers won’t find anything in this article they didn’t know already. All others will find it quite useful. We’ll show a few different ways of how you can quickly test the mobile version of your application.
This article applies to PHPRunner, ASPRunnerPro and ASPRunner.NET with Mobile template option enabled.
