Ok, I'll let you know.

Thanks,

>In my WWWC demo, the query is re-run with every hit, including hits that are only meant to get a different page. Individual values like a page number or a key value get stored in a session object or placed as a parameter in the URL, either automatically by a WWWC function or manually using some other WWWC function.

>>>Passing parameters is easy and works basically the same as it does in ASP. Depending on whether you use a POST or GET method from the parent, inside the child page (the one recieving some parameter), you can issue something like:
>>>
>>><%
>>>lcCompany = FOX.GETFORMVAR("Company")
>>>%>
>>>
>>>In this case, lcCompany would be a variable which now holds the value of the variable Company passed to the page via a Form POST call.

I haven't tried WWC so I can't compare the 2 other than to say I have always heard good things about WWC. I have taken a look at the Visual Webbuilder product and it looks like a great tool to use with WWC, something that is definitely lacking in AFP.

>>>>>AFP's strengths are its power and simplicity. I was productive in less than 10 minutes of first trying it. Its drawbacks are I feel like I've stepped backwards to the 2.x days in the way you manage a project. You can use FP and Interdev, no question about it, but it is a scripting engine. But for a large scale web based project (complexity of the app not the size or amount of the data), managing could be difficult.
