This is my first site visit. I was wondering how "Your Stuff" > Add was built. on the Home Page. Is it possible with UD4 to save formatting information to a database. Any help would be appreciated.

hi Ravi,

short answer to your question...Yes, UDev can store formatting in Dbases, provided the required fields are set up properly, ie. a memofield to store the html formatting created by say a PD-online HTML editor, which you can find right here in the extensions section, and there's excellent tutorials about how to use this behavior in your own projects.

The Your stuff thingy calls up a certain page that has conditional regions and asp upload actions combined with the pd-html edit thing which they severely altered to add images and other neato thingies into the Dbase.

To completely explain how something similar is done would require a complete how to UDev training of atleast 5 workdays before it all keeps hanging in your head, sadly nobody has such a training, yet.

I hope that somehow answers your question.

With kind regards,
