I am new to EWB, and my Delphi experience is 15 years ago, so basically I'm a total newbie.

I am wanting to create a webapp/site that has a header, footer, menubar. I would like it to be responsive and I need a project to use as a base for what I'm wanting to do.

I would like someone to create an EWB project that has header, footer, menubar, and depending on the menu item clicked would open some form, maybe with a grid, and a few html panels, in it. It needs to be responsive. Maybe another menu item opens a modal form. I don't want all these forms loaded at application startup,

Basically something that show me how to show forms (pages) and move from page to page, etc while being responsive and keeping the header, menu and footer visible at all times. I believe there would need to be scrollbars for vertical pages because if a form had 3 panels on it and the width of the browser is reduced, the scrollbar would have to be there to allow the user to get to it.

Originally I was looking for register/login/logout/remember me, etc, but really I need a good understanding of how to create basically a framework that makes it easier to build my pages/forms/etc

The original V1 skeleton project that Jim had created looked pretty interesting to me, but it won't work in V2 and I don't have the knowledge to be able to fix it, plus it didn't use a menubar for example because it didn't exist in V1.

I am not asking for anyone to project this for free, though I've tried to convince Tim that having something like this would probably sell more EWB licenses, but it may be that I'm not now good enough yet to make it work on my own. If someone wants to send me an email I'll be paying them via paypal when it's completed. Let me know.

I don't know if I can put my email here but I don't know of a way for anyone to send me a private message here. Please remove email if it's not allowed.. asawyer at asboinc dot com

And of course, I'm trying to locate something pretty quickly as I'm behind what I'm wanting to do.

Thanks

If you want header and footer to be visible all the time, one way to
realize that would be to use embedded forms (just set their parent to
the MainForm).

I put a demo together for you in the Demos NG (very quickly - so it's
just very basic).

Have a look at the layout properties of forms and controls - the layout
functionality is one of the finest features in EWB!

Hope that helps.
