We currently use FileMaker 5.5 for a small (300k records)
database with (I would say) complex scripts and functionality.
Mostly for SSL and fat-server reasons, we want to go to web-
based. But we change layouts and rules a lot (maybe that is the
problem) and I do not want to recode the HTML everytime a field
needs to be nudged a few pixels, which is often. I cannot find
any software that helps me with this. The FileMaker 7.0 web
generator does not support my advanced scripts, or that would
be just what I needed except it is not SQL. Servoy requires seat
licenses and is not true web. I would develop on LAMP but the
maintenance of a complicated, dynamic site seems onerous. I
don’t think Dreamweaver allows me to include PHP or other code
although I can’t get a straight answer on this.
Surely this must be the most needed software in the world – GUI
HTML and SQL renderer, but why can’t I find it? FoxPro for the
Web?
This would be different than a data-base driven site. Instead of
the dynamic data being the issue (which is still true) is that the
HTML changes a lot too, and there is PHP (with SQL) embedded.
Please help this data-base driven fool.
