Roy,

IE8

If someone is using IE6, then they're out of luck.  That browser was a big
hot mess, and that's probably a compliment.

No worries. I'd said a lot worse to users in the past (still do come to think of it)

Its going on hold for a little while anyway as I concentrate on getting my stringgrid fisnished to replace the TMS one.

Tim,

Awesome!
It really looks good, and very useful to show how Datasets work at the client side.
Now, what's in the server side? Where is the data coming from?

Hey,

Just to make sure everyone is managing to run the demo with live data from Tim's server you have to replace :
  TempRequest.URL:='data\'+DataSet.Name;

with
  TempRequest.URL:='http://www.elevatesoft.com/cdcollector/data/'+DataSet.Name;

in the TMainForm.LoadDataSet method.

Hi Tim,

I compiled the CD Collector project and made the change to the code
that Fernando stated in his post in this thread. However when I run the
project on my server I get an error:

Application Error
uncaught exception: Error
line: 0

I have to click the OK button three times to get past the error. After
clicking the OK button to get rid of the error message I do not get any
data in the project. The rest of the project works perfectly...just no
data. Is the code that Fernando mentioned (copied below) correct or am
I missing something?

TempRequest.url: =
'http://www.elevatesoft.com/cdcollector/data/'+DataSet.Name;

Tim,

I forgot to mention that I am running the January 26th build.

Jan,

Do you also get the exception if you stop the internal web server ?

Fernando,

I am not running the internal web server. I get an error message when I
try to start it on my development computer:

The web server cannot be started (Socket error: An attempt was made to
access a socket in a way forbidden by it's access permissions. (10013),
on API 'bind')

Due to that I never try to run my test projects with the internal web
server. I upload them to my web server and they have all run properly.

However...on a lark I decided to try to run this project (F9) and when
I did, it did indeed run and it did show the data properly. I double
checked and the internal web server is not running.

FWIW, the web server I am running the demo on is a Unix box, but I
can't see where that would make any difference.

Jan,

I just uploaded it to my web server and I'm also seeing the same issue.
It doesn't happen with Elevate web server or directly in the browser, though.
It seems we will have to wait for Tim... I have no idea what is causing it, unless it is related with another issue that I have seen, when the server runs in a machine with the regional settings set to other than English, but I really don't know if its related or not.

You may not be able to run the project in the IDE due to cross-domain
restrictions.  You'll basically be trying to load data from
www.elevatesoft.com while using localhost for the rest.

I've posted a test web server that you can use for running the sample
application here in this newsgroup.
