Generating Forms

FTP Control version 4.5 may now use HTML files as forms for user input and data presentation. These forms may be created using standard HTML code. When a script uses a form for data input and output during execution it allows more control if HTML tags are used to activate subroutines within the script.

 

Forms may be created using standard HTML code. Additionally HTML links may now be used to interact with scripts by calling subroutines.

 

To open an HTML form from within a script, you will need to use either the OpenForm or ShowForm command. Scripting examples 64 through 69 are samples of the various functions that are possible with these new commands and HTML forms.
