Working with data in Instant Web Publishing
Web users interact with databases on the web in Browse or Find mode. All the features that enable web users
to interact with your database, for example, entering, editing, deleting, and finding records, are accessible
from the status area.
Viewing and modifying records in Browse mode
In Browse mode, web users perform tasks by clicking on an icon in the status area. If their account name
and privileges provide access, they can:
1 create records
1 edit records
1 duplicate records
1 delete records
1 sort the found set (based on fields on the current layout)
1 show all records
1 omit the current record from the found set
1 omit multiple, consecutive records from the found set
1 view the omitted records (and hide the existing found set)
Hold the cursor over an icon to see its description. Procedures are outlined in the Instant Web Publishing
Help. To view the Help file, click the Question Mark (?) in the status area.
Important After entering or editing data in a record, web users must click the Submit button in the status area
to save the record to the host.
