title displayed while e-Business Applet loads. For example:
<PARAM NAME="TITLE" VALUE="My Product
Catalog"> |
| DATA |
name of your text data file. Default is data.txt. If the
data file is placed in another directory than the applet this
parameter must include the relative path from the directory of
the applet. For example:
The applet is in http://www.javazine.net/catviewpro/ and
the data file is in
http://www.javazine.net/catviewpro/db/data.txt then this
parameter must be
<PARAM NAME="DATA"
VALUE="db/data.txt"> |
| DELIMITER |
specify the character used to separate columns in your data
file. Valid DELIMITER values are COMMA (,) or SEMICOLON (;) or
TAB (tabulator) or QMARK (') or DQMARK (").
COMMA is default. For example:
<PARAM NAME="DELIMITER" VALUE="TAB"> |
| ROWCOUNT |
number of rows in your data file. For example:
<PARAM NAME="ROWCOUNT" VALUE="1200"> |
| COLUMN_X |
X is the column number starting from 1. The values in the
COLUMN_X parameters must contain a column title, an
optional data type specification like NUMBER, PRICE, URL,
IMAGE, CATEGORY> and an optional BASEURL and TARGET value.
The syntax is as follow
<PARAM NAME="COLUMN_X" VALUE="Column title;
URL or IMAGE or NUMBER or PRICE or CATEGORY; BASEURL;
TARGET>
or
<PARAM NAME="COLUMN_X" VALUE="Column title;
IMAGE; BASEURL>
Notice that values are separated with semicolons.
For example:
<PARAM NAME="COLUMN_1" VALUE="JournalId;
NUMBER>
<PARAM NAME="COLUMN_2" VALUE="Journals; URL; http://www.javazine.dk/journals/;
_blank>
<PARAM NAME="COLUMN_3" VALUE="Author">
<PARAM NAME="COLUMN_4" VALUE="Journal Picture;
IMAGE">
In this case column 1 Journal ids, column 2 are links to the
Journal, column 3 are just some authors and column 4 are links
to pictures. When users click on fields in column 2
the applet will construct a hyperlink from
http://www.javazine.net/journals/ + "value in the column
clicked on" and try to load this document in a new browser
window. The same thing happens when the user clicks on column 4
where the browser will try to load an image. In column 4 there
is no BASEURL specified, thus data in this column must contain
absolute links to the images that should be loaded. If a column
is of type URL you can also specify the target. The target can
be a new window (default) or one of the windows _self, _parent,
_blank, or a frame.
A column of type PRICE is used to calculate the cost
of the ordered items. There can only be 1 column of type PRICE
A column of type CATEGORY is used to group the
products into groups. The categories can then be selected from a
drop down list.

VALUE="mail.compuserve.com">
