Think Inside the WebViewer

It’s high time we Think Inside the Web Viewer. By turning our attention to that one object, we can realize the full potential of it, the quirks of it, and the in-practice use of it. In our discussion, we’ll look at three things:

• All that we can do with the web viewer - a quick review of all the possibilities. Not just different widgets we can build but the interactions we can achieve with any widget.

• How the web viewer works and its quirks.

• Tips on how to use it in a real application. This topic covers storing of the code and practical ideas for placement in your app.

So let’s narrow our gaze at the FileMaker (or Claris) Pro web viewer object and see its multiple layers of use, quirks, and possibilities.
