Inmagic® WebPublisherPRO: Beyond the basics workshop

Are you a new user of WebPublisher PRO and want to get up and running fast? Or... have you been using the program for years, but need tips on how to update the look and maximize the effectiveness of your Web databases? Come and join us for an informative and fun session where we will guide you through practical techniques to improve the user experience and functionality of the software

In the workshop we will integrate WebPublisher PRO search and results with an existing website, showing how to best edit exported search pages, and how to add site navigation to results pages. If you have many databases or even just the one, editing the search page and all your reports each time your site look and feel changes can be time consuming. We will cover options to minimize the work involved in site upkeep and redesigns through style sheets and website templates. We will also discuss enhancements to exported query screens such as radio buttons, dropdowns, and checkboxes to guide users in selecting the number of records to display, the results form to be used, and other choices.

Of course, we will include a section on Web based editing - how to use access control fields when you wish to give others Web data entry access to your database, and how to simplify the experience for them by employing radio buttons, checkboxes, etc. to control input.

Andornot has established a reputation for innovative applications and we will share some ideas and best practices for taking your use of WebPublisher PRO to the next level. Peter Tyrrell and Denise Bonin will be presenting the workshop and both have received high ratings as workshop presenters. If you have ever read Peter's postings to the Inmagic forums and Andornot Developer blog you will know he has a unique sense of humour as well as being an accomplished Web developer.

The cost of the workshop will include a selection of scripts that Andornot has developed to provide additional control over the standard WebPublisher PRO output, with easy to follow instructions to allow you to implement these in your own application.

This workshop was presented at the 8th SLA Annual Conference in Toronto - June 11, 2005.  Future dates will be announced in our newsletter. We can also deliver one on one training covering selected sections of the workshop via WebEx.  Contact us for more information.
