That was apparently true in version 2.0. The current version I tested is 2.06, which says on their website:

Starting with 2.06 support (with particular restrictions) browsers MS IE, Opera, Mozzila, FireFox, Netscape and Safari

The restrictions are that they expose some methods for you to manipulate IE directly which would obviously not work in other browsers. I tested all their demos in Firefox and did not have any problems, including manipulating the browser.



>>I recently experimented with vfp2iis. Their claims of running VFP thru your browser -- any browser -- sounded exagerated. I had planned to post my results here at some point, so now seems as good as any.

>>The claims are pretty much true. I found three issues, which may or may not matter to you:
>>
>>1. There are a couple of vfp commands that have to be substituted; most notable messagebox() needs to become vfp2iis.messagebox and do form has to become vfp2iis.doform. They have a list of these compatibility issues.
>>
>>2. I also had some trouble with the installation. It comes with VFP 9 SP 1 runtimes, and my server had SP2 runtimes already. Once I swapped the SP 2 runtimes instead of SP 1 the installation worked.
>>
>>3. The biggest problem for me was the extensive documention in english is written by non-english speakers, and is very, very difficult to understand. I see in the docs so many abilities that I wanted to try, but simply could not follow the example instructions.
>>
>>The positive is as follows:
>>
>>1. It really does work. Your VFP forms show up in a browser and run flawlessly.
>>
>>2. The tech support is fast and very helpful, despite the language barrier. Although it appears to be a small operation, my emails were returned very quickly with answers and even with attached example forms showing how to do what I wanted.
>>
>>3. They provide a pretty extensive demo app/forms showing many examples.
>>
>>The demo is free with a nag screen, that allows you to try it out.
>>
>>I have to say I was favorably impressed. With better english docs I would buy it in an instant, I may buy it even without that.

>>
>>>I have a form and would like people could test it without have to download the whole software
>>>
>>>It's the price table of a parking lot and shows the user how the software will behave as he types
>>>prices and schedules

>>>It has only a table
>>>
>>>Is there a way to put this form which its vfp native form over the internet, or an easy way to convert
>>>it to some internet language script ?
