Watch What's new in this update webcast
This beta won't interfere with currently installed ASPRunnerPro or PHPRunner. You can keep your previous version and run both programs side by side.
This upgrade will be free to all customers who purchased ASPRunnerPro/PHPRunner less than one year ago.

We'll send new registration keys once final version is released.

All other customers will be able to upgrade to new version for $99.
Known bugs and limitation in this beta

  • some features were not yet tested in Internet Explorer
  • Tabs/Sections will be added to View pages and (maybe) to Register page
  • Field tooltips on Edit/Add pages. Not implemented yet in templates. Will be available in final version.
    Major features in this update

  1. Tabs/folding sections on Add/Edit pages


2. Option to display Add/Edit/View pages in popup

3. New 'View as' types 'Video' and 'Audio'. 'Edit as' type can be either 'Text field' (enter video/audio file name there) or 'File/Image' (upload files).
What video file types are supported:

http://flowplayer.org/documentation/technical-facts.html
Audio files playback is provided by Yahoo! media player. This player is really nice though it has some limitations (it's a beta version, doesn't work well in IE/Chrome, requires Internet connection to work). Most probably we'll have to switch to another player for now.
4. A number of improvements related to huge (hundreds of tables) projects support. Faster loading, partial rebuild.


5. Totally revamped events editor.
Filter by event name


Show events with actual code only


Search within event or within all events

Hi,
Thanks for sharing with us the new version. I am very excited. so i want to be first one that tried it. I like new features on ASPPRO 6.3. I used a projects that i created using ASP Pro6.2 the process creates the ASP pages but when i tried to open it on Internet explorer i received the below error :

Hucham,
could you post your application to Demo Account and open a ticket at http://support.xlinesoft.com sending your Demo Account URL?

'Demo Account' button can be found on the last screen in the program.

Thanks for bringing this Beta. I love using this tool.
So, do we use our current license key for the Beta. I noticed has an 21 day expiration.
Thanks

Sekaidragon 8/31/2010

This is going to be a great tool. Naturally, there are a lot of bugs (it's what beta testing is for), so I'm wondering if there is a specific forum for posting bugs or should we submit tickets instead? Thanks!

admin 8/31/2010

Sekaidragon,
you can either post reports here or better yet send tickets directly to support team to ensure faster turnaround.

aramuni 8/31/2010

Congrats!
Can we have 5.2 and 5.3 versions in the same machine? How?
All the bugs we found in 5.2 version are fixed?
Tks!

K
KevinMillican 8/31/2010

Some nice new features here, but plenty of bugs too. Here are a couple for starters:-

  1. Tabs only half work - I'm getting unexpected fields duplicated on the wrong tabs, and others are missing from the tab they should be on.
  2. Now() default on datetimes always defaults to 00:00:00 time
  3. On the totals page, all fields appear on the List page even if they are disabled.
    Update 2010-09-02

    These three issues are fixed in build 6213

    Thanks[/i]

Dirk Klees 9/1/2010

Where can i upgrade for getting the $99 offer before the final release? Currently, the order page only offers the 5.2 version (which i have already). Is the free Templates Pack or ReportsMaestro included in those upgrades as well?

M
mmponline 9/1/2010

What I see so far in 5.3 looks great. Well done, development team.

I'm specifically interested in the tab and section functionand I know you it's still WIP (work in progress) Some pointers and suggestions though:

  1. The tabs does not show any fields yet. Sections do though. Tried both IE and Firefox
  2. I would like to see that sections should have the ability to either show or hide on first opening the page. At the moment it shows by default. (Maybe I'm missing the place where to set it)
  3. When not showing (same with tabs) required fields should also be inactive so that it does not need completion if empty, otherwise there is no use for having them to expand or not. Once active or showing, the field should become required if set that way. I see the original demo (http://demo.asprunner.net/tanya_xlinesoft_com/Project2/products_add.php) is the same.
    General:
  4. I see all fields show up on the "Totals" page, even if not selected on the "Fields" tab of PHPRunner.
  5. I saved an existing project and it seems to work without major issues so far. This is a huge relief as the conversion from 5.1 to 5.2 was (is) a nightmare.
  6. Can't wait for Version 6 with possible Visual editor and theme enhancements. I think this will then make PHPRunner a complete package.
    Keep up the good work.

admin 9/1/2010

Thank you everyone for the feedback!
I would ask anyone who is facing issues with this beta to post your application to Demo Account and open a ticket at http://support.xlinesoft.com sending your Demo Account URL. 'Demo Account' button can be found on the last screen in the program.
aramuni,
yes, you can run both versions side by side.
All known issues were fixed in PHPRunner 5.2 quite a long time ago. If you are having any issues running the latest build of PHPRunner 5.2 - contact support team directly providing more info.
Kevin Millican, Rod,
I would ask you to post your application to Demo Account and contact support team directly providing more info on reproducing those issues.
suprapen,
I would need more details and probably and screenshot that explains how tabs cab be applied to child records.
Dirk Klees,
once final version is released upgrade page will be updated to feature PHPRunner 5.3. Free gifts are provided with new purchases only.
Stephan - MMP,
please show where we can see 'The tabs does not show any fields yet' issue.
Nice suggestion in regards to initial section state.
Not sure I understand (3). If you have an example to show - it would be nice.

mmponline 9/2/2010

Explanation of 3:

When not showing (same with tabs) required fields should also be inactive so that it does not need completion if empty, otherwise there is no use for having them to expand or not. Once active or showing, the field should become required if set that way. I see the original demo (http://demo.asprunner.net/tanya_xlinesoft_com/Project2/products_add.php'>http://demo.asprunner.net/tanya_xlinesoft_com/Project2/products_add.php) is the same.



Look at your original demo http://demo.asprunner.net/tanya_xlinesoft_com/Project2/products_add.php'>http://demo.asprunner.net/tanya_xlinesoft_com/Project2/products_add.php

Now click on "add tab2" without completing info on "Add tab1"

Add info (optional) and save.

The record won't save as the client did not complete the required ProductID field on tab1 but can't see that it is required as it is showing Tab 2 info.

The ideal should be that the required field should only be active if the tab is active. Otherwise some message should indicate on top of the page that a field in the specific tab is still empty.

Hope this explains.

please show where we can see 'The tabs does not show any fields yet' issue.



I'll post on demo and send link to support.

Hi,
The "add timestamp to uploaded filename" is not working in both builds (build 6181)and (build 6213). This bug is produced in both the development environment (movamp) and on a Linux server with PHP Version 5.2.13

HJB 9/3/2010

Sergey,
many thanks for having been rolling out this marvelous product. Rather than to run a further "wish list oriented mission" like e.g. SAVE multilingual TABS (like seen on CSV based things under LABEL EDITOR right now), it is certainly just be a question of time once things like that shall be seen later on, e.g. the v5.4 or even v6.0.
Anyway, TABBED operations under Ipad cloned 7 inch or else screen sized shall boost the commercial aspect to use PHPRUNNER v5.3 for code generation as the VISUAL EDITOR advantage to customize screen content in the wished manner could only be seen at XLINESOFT, nowhere else, to provide at least a realistic chance for developers to somehow be able to compete with APPLE's and GOOGLE's APP STORES on any "income-pad" oriented wishes of salesmen of product and service distributors of all kinds, as BROWSER based information flow has still some CROSSOVER like advantages while the Ipad clone manufacturers are still trying to find their way under which OS the web based information flow is finally going to happen.
THUMBS UP for v5.3 and the developer team ..., just my 2 cents on the issue.
Stay tuned ... - cheers HJ

Problem in the Search setting phpr5.3b build 6213
Hi admin
If We are opening a PHPRunner 5.2 file with PHPRunner 5.3b the search settings in report will not work

the setting will be disabled and the final output will not have advanced search fields. screen-shot attached <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=reply&id=52405&image=1&table=forumreplies' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' /> <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=reply&id=52405&image=2&table=forumreplies' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' /> <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=reply&id=52405&image=3&table=forumreplies' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' />

for example the job project created in phpr5.2 with an report view will show these characteristics when open with phpr 5.3b build 6213
OS in which phpr installed: windows 7 Ultimate.

Smith,
something must be wrong at your end, say, under XAMPP LITE everything already works like a charm at my end that way, I fear we shall see a new record time (a.k.a. PERFORMANCE ALL-TIME HIGH) by the developer team, say, the final in shorter period than 2 months time. Just my 2 cents on the issue ...

Hi walk2fly

I feel the program has nothing to do with xampp, I tried under wamp.

the issue is present when a phprunner 5.2 saved file reopens with 5.3b, did you try to open a v5.2 project file which has a report is opened with 5.3b look at the search setting for the report page. anyway I'm currently testing the program. this may be an issue with Backward compatibility. A report page freshly created with phpr 5.3b works like a charm. A big salute for the developers for making such a wonderful program, all the best from my side to the developers and support team.

marke 9/9/2010

Hi
I really like the 5.3 - I'm having a few issues with getting the output code to work properly but I'm sure I'll get that sorted soon.
I hate to start requirements creep at this late stage - but is there any chance that the Advanced Search could also be offered as a submodal popup display (like Add, Edit, View). I really like the new approach but if we are going to present the user with a consistent experience it would be great to have all the main supporting pages act in the same way.
Secondly - would it be possible to have the opening size of the popup windows be customisable without having to edit the templates. It would be nice to have the size as a table specific property, but even the option of setting the default opening size would be a big improvement and avoid the user having to resize every time the popup opens.
Thanks - keep up the good work
Mark

Hello.
I found three problems in ASPRunner Professional 6.3 6382
1.. the popup windows in Add View and in the Search Panel DO NOT open

They worked fine in version 6352. I don't have popus blocked by Internet

Explorer 8. The popups windows work OK in ASPRunnerProfessional 6.2
2.. Files are not uploaded in the files folder

3.. I'm not sure if this is a bug or not.the message Show All from the

Page Record Menu doesn't get translated in any language
I'm Marco Benelli's brother. My brother bought ASPRunner Professional. We

would like to know when it will be possible to buy the upgrade. We are using

a demo version which will expire in four days.

I tried ASPRunner Professional 6.3 build 6411 on a different computer. I didn't experience the same problems that I mentioned before in another message, but other strange things happened
1.. the button to go back to the "add mask" doesn't go back to the file list

2.. videos do not play; you can see the files in the list only if you modify them but movies do not start

3.. audio files do not appear in the list

4.. the date is only shown in the U.S. format even if the date mask has been customized

A suggestion if I may:
After a record has been updated, it would be very nice if the edit mask would show a link to the page view (something similar to what happens in the add page that links to view and edit)
Thanks

mccreelake 9/29/2010



suprapen,

I would need more details and probably and screenshot that explains how tabs cab be applied to child records.


I actually think I can provide an example of what this person is requesting and I think it would be a great feature.
Currently, the inline options for child tables on the add/edit pages go down vertically starting from the bottom of the master page fields. So, for instance, if you have an ORDERS page with PAYMENTS, SHIPMENTS, and INVENTORY as child pages, the three child pages go down like this:
ORDER FIELD 1

ORDER FIELD 2

ETC
SAVE - BACK to LIST
PAYMENTS TABLE

SHIPMENTS TABLE

INVENTORY TABLE
It would be really cool if you could select a "tab" option where the user would select which table they wanted to see from a list of tabs.
PAYMENTS - SHIPMENTS - INVENTORY
Similar to the navigation options that are provided currently, but smaller and embedded within the page.
Hope this helps,
McCree

There was once a demo, I think of 5.3 which touted some mapping features, ability to generate a Google map of multiple values, like a search result. Is that a new feature of 5.3, or was it revoked, or is it possible in 5.2 already? I searched the forum, but didn't find the reference I remember.
Thanks~
