Ext.nd Beta 1

[RWaters]

After a lot of hard work, we've finally finished the first beta release of Ext.nd. For more details and download check out the official release thread.

This release marks our move from Alpha to Beta, and also the move from Ext 1.x to Ext 2.0.1.

Enjoy!

Nice one. Can't wait to dig in and compare.. I have 3 apps running on Ext 1.x using some Ext.nd code and i am starting one this week on 2.0. This will be very helpful!

Couple Qs?
- Are you guys planning on releasing any Ext.nd categorized view code?
- Any further developments on not Loading EXT and EXT.ND in every iframe?
- Where/What is the view suggest component?

We are certainly planning on tackling categorized views - I have already started working to get them integrated with Ext's GroupingViews

Currently it still loads the framework within the iframes, there's not any easy way around this.

The ViewSuggest component is bundled with extnd-all, there's an example of its implementation in the Demo database. It allows you to get simple type-ahead functionality in a field by passing in a view and a fieldname to pull the information from.

Once I add the code to the HTML Header of a form, I can't access the page at all. log.nsf says the page can not be found. Any ideas?

Also, the code in the [HTML Head Content] field of the profile documnet is missing some quotes around the line [<link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='" + extUrl + "resources/css/xtheme-gray.css' />]

I just downloaded the b1 release, created a profile doc, created a "main" page in a Notes-only db, pasted in the @dblookup, and I had a web-enabled app in 20 minutes!

Well . . . maybe not production ready, but certainly faster than any other framework.

Great work Rich and crew. Looking forward to future releases.

Yep, I missed that one. If you pick the "Gray Theme" it add the css reference to the xtheme-gray.css but the formula for that line needs to change.

Old Code

<link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='" + extUrl + "resources/css/xtheme-gray.css' />

New Code

"<link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='" + extUrl + "resources/css/xtheme-gray.css' />" + @Newline +

If you make that change you should be ok.

Hey -- looking good. Yeah, those categorized views are a pain in the ass -- I've just stopped using them in my apps.
