I have always struggled with the built-in WEBDEV message and dialog boxes. Their styling tends to break at some point during a project's lifespan, and they never quite do what I want, so I generally create my own. After working on our current project for several months, I decided it was time to create a … Continue reading Universal Toast & Popup Manager
I upgraded to Update 2 this morning (version 302028) and found a serious issue with Flexbox when used inside a looper. The Flexbox CSS classes are not being generated correctly with Update 2. This worked correctly in Update 1. When you add a FlexBox to a looper it now generated the HTML/CSS for the DIV … Continue reading Update 2 Has a Flexbox issue when used in loopers
A while back I wrote about using the wxFileManager in combination with the Assisted Input feature of WINDEV / WEBDEV to provide a nice predictive input control, if you missed that post check it out here.

We have uncovered what I consider a fairly serious issue when publishing to an Apache 2.4 server running WEBDEV 2025 45g. The issue is all of the config entries for the site are being placed in the HTTPD config file instead of the appropriate VirtualHost section of the config files. If you are only running … Continue reading Apache 2.4 + WEBDEV 2025 45g Publishing Issue

Since Amazon AWS and Apache are what I know that is the technology we will be using, but I am sure other cloud hosting platforms offer similar. … Continue reading AWS+ALB+WAF+ACM+EC2+WAS=A more secure webserver setup?
Today, we encountered an unusual requirement. Someone needed to send a file via API using Multipart Form Data, rather than Base64 encoding the file and submitting it as JSON data. I have experience sending files using Multipart Form Data, both via the HTTPSendForm function and by manually encoding the data using our wxHTTP class. I've … Continue reading Creating a RESTful API to accept a Multipart Form Post
This is my third and hopefully final article on font icons! Ironically, by the end of this piece, we'll drop the term "font" altogether. We'll be using inline SVGs for icons, thereby eliminating the need for the browser to download fonts. This will also solve several problems associated with the use of font icons in … Continue reading Font Icons 3: This time it’s about SVG
