If the first script step in the script is not one of these supported script
steps, then it is handled as a single script step. If it is not supported
for Instant Web Publishing, then the script is not generated for the
button. If a script contains both supported and unsupported steps,
then parsing of the script will cease as soon as the first unsupported
step is encountered.
Suppressing the Instant Web Publishing interface
You can use a startup script to suppress the automatic page layouts
and navigation controls of Instant Web Publishing in the browser.
When web users click a link on the Instant Web Publishing home
page, your database layout appears instead of the built-in layout of
the instant web page. (To display a database layout instead of the
Instant Web Publishing home page, see “Bypassing the Instant Web
Publishing home page” on page 6-12.)
When you hide the Instant Web Publishing interface, you must
specify one of the following web styles that use cascading style
sheets:
1 Soft Gray
1 Lavender
1 Wheat
1 Blue and Gold 1
The other web styles don’t work with hiding the Instant Web
Publishing interface. For information about web styles, see
“Choosing a web style” in chapter 14 of the FileMaker Pro User’s
Guide or see FileMaker Pro Help.
You only need the Toggle Status Area [Hide] script step in your
startup script to hide the Instant Web Publishing interface. In
addition, you can combine the Toggle Status Area [Hide] script step
with one of the following script steps in the startup script:
1 Enter Browse Mode: Form View
1 Enter Find Mode: Search page
1 New Record: New Record View
1 View As [View as Table]: Table View
The Freeze Window, Set User Capture, and Refresh Window script
steps can appear before the supported steps, but they will be ignored.
To hide the Instant Web Publishing interface:
1. Choose Scripts > ScriptMaker and type a name for the new script in
the Script Name text box. Then click Create.
