What is a web app

What is a web app and where can I look at some examples?
Thanks

Hi Muratamed,
Here are a few documents which explain what web apps are and will provide you with a tutorial on how to create your own:

Whats The Best Web Apps?

Just got my new iphone and wanted to knoe if antone could tell me some cool web apps.
thanks

WebApps is just a term the iPhone world made up. WebApps are just websites that one accesses via the browser. But instead of full websites, they are tailored to a task (Chat, game, To Do lists, etc) and they are formatted with iPhone specific syntax to appear good on the phone. They are nothing magical. So for the most part they are free. Now there are a few complex webapps that charge. As an example. There is a remote desktop controler app. One first has to install software on their computer. Then via the iphone they can access their computer from anywhere. They only give you a limited trial and you will have to pay if you want the software on the computer to keep working. But as mentioned, most are free. Some also may require you to sign up for an account that the maker of the webapp controls.

The web app input form is not holding what i enter in it

Am setting up a business directory using the web apps, and two of fields are custom, one for map and video, {tag_map embed} {tag_video embed}. Now when I add a business using the web app input form. All the other fields work perfect in the list and detail page, but in the detail page where the map and video tags are, they are empty, the form isn’t taking what I enter in the map and video field. I tried text (string) and text (multiline), no change. But when I add the business in the back end, it works. So it makes me think there is something wrong with the input form. I also try with the edit layout form once the business was added, that didn’t work too.
Any ideas what would be causing this to happen

Newbie: What is the best approach to integrate BO Enterprise into web app

Hi
1. I am very new to Business Objects and .Net. I need to know what's the best approach
when intergrating bo into my web app i.e which sdk do i use?
For now i want to provide very basic viewing functionality for the following reports :
-> Crystal Reports
-> Web Intellegence Reports
-> PDF Reports
2. Where do i find a standalone install for the Business Objects Enteprise XI .Net providers?
I only managed to find the wssdk but i can't find the others. Business Objects Enteprise XI
does not want to install on my machine (development) - installed fine on server, so i was hoping i could find a standalone install.

To answer question one, you can use the Enterprise .NET SDK for each, though for viewing Webi documents it is much easier to use the opendocument method of URL reporting to view them.
The Crystal Reports and PDF instances can be viewed easily using the SDK.
Here is a link to the Developer Library:

What is the best way is to create a web app item collection which will contain only the listings where addressstate="ABC".

What is the best way is to create a web app item collection which will contain only the listings where addressstate="ABC".

How many systems have you used Robert?
This is the only system you can not have all item data at least in JSON format and all of it. Big commerce has a lower limit and as I have said in every post related to a limit - I understand the function, but you can still make the requests as just one example (front and back)
Same with API Robert.
Firstly - the SOAP API request on say products gets you ALL the products, if you do something through a REST API request you can make the requests to get all the items to complete your process of what your doing - You have to otherwise the API is pointless.
Ok if the normal modules can not iterate through if there is a module_data solution, and web apps will get there hopefully sooner then later and you do have the sql query (where) for your filter which is great BUT, if you want to implement a solution across everything you cant do that with the liquid implementation.
This also flows through to the JSON everywhere in concept which is fundamentally flawed for the same reason... And again referring other like services where a hard API has a limit but the JSON request returns everything.
How those work varies from the method of request, some will only update every day, xxx time (Depending on cost of the plan) so its a cached version of data, to the ones that limit that request to x number of times per set time/day.
That is how the actual rest of the world works, varied solutions but they are solutions. BC know they have a few limitations, there clearly is the need for things, there are a varied set of options... It is just a matter of engaging in it and offering up a solution for it, silence just creates frustration.

IGuitar? iPhone guitar? Is it a web app. or what...

Ive seen lots of cool videos on youtube of people playing (iGuitar) or whatever the proper name is for it. And im wondering is that a web app. or an actual feature on the iPhone.. Im purchasing the iPhone soon so im still kind of clueless to lots of thing and im just wondering what it is/where you get it. if anyone has it i'd like some feedback on how it works and if you enjoy it. just seems like a cool little thing to do to pass time. A response would be greatt!

Thanks a lot because i deffinatly didnt want to be wasting time looking for this app. when there isnt one. And hacking of the phone dont sound too safe, not worth it just for a little guitar game. Thanks again for the info!
P.S. One more question, just for Sh*ts and Giggles. How/who hacks into an iPhone, i assume its not.. but is it safe or healthy for the iPhone? And i also assume it voids the warrenty too?

ImageMailer iPhone web app: What gives?

Someone recently posted a question regarding the ImageMailer web app for the iPhone; however, the thread seems to have been removed quite quickly.
What gives here? As far as I can tell, it is a legit web app, which is advertised on the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/webapps/utilities/imagemailer.html
??

Apologies for the loss of service. imageMailer was down for a total of about 18 hours this week due to a general server failure. This has now been resolved and imageMailer is therefore back online - hopefully this time for good!
http://www.rainsforth.co.uk/iphone/imagemailer/
During the downtime we've improved support for URLs containing ?, = and & characters and added support for URLs referencing JPG, GIF and PNG files directly.
We've also added a new Google filter, which gives the user the option to send original hi-res images rather than low-res thumbnails when extracting from Google image search results.
A demo can be found here: http://www.rainsforth.co.uk/iphone/imagemailer/?url=http://images.google.com/ima ges?client=safari&hl=en&q=appleiphone&btnG=SearchImages&gbv=2
Any feedback and comments are welcome.

What's faster: API request or web app search via Ajax?

Just curious, since I use both a lot. Assume there are a lot of records to retrieve.

Ajax search of web apps below 800 - fine, if above then you wont return all results and have pagination so will miss out some results if they are big searches. Web app data pull will be similar but return all results better. Your web app search will be based on the layout you choose so the results would be pre-formated html based on a layout. Your API results will be the json response data of the whole thing you will then need to pluck out and form a rendered layout with or work with.
Depends on what you want to use the data for.
If it is to work out more calculations with your scripting then the API way would be the best but if your just wanting results and to display, the ajax would be the quicker method in general, not nessarily with the post but when you factor in everything.

I had designed a Web App and tested on Firefox 18, 19, 20 and now when i'm checking it on 21 version it's not rendering properly. Now tell me what should i do.

I had designed a Web App and tested on Firefox 18, 19, 20 and now when I'm checking it on 21 version it's not rendering properly. Now tell me what should i do.

Hi charlesmoizeau, why do you want to install Firefox 18? To be compatible with a particular website or add-on? There might be a better workaround, but without the details, it's hard to say.
See this help article: [[Install an older version of Firefox]]. And be aware that Mozilla discloses [https://www.mozilla.org/security/known-vulnerabilities/firefox.html security flaws] after each new release.

I upgraded to Firefox 8.0.1 on may MacBook OSX 10.6.8 and not all files I download from my Outlook Web app are ashx file, not what they were originally sent in. How do I change this ?

I have just upgraded to Firefox 8.0.1 on may MacBook (10.6.8) and now all files I download from my Outlook Web app labeled attachment.ashx, not as they were originally sent (.docx, .pdf, etc). How do I change this back?

I'm going to back up to Firefox 7 next. I'm getting the drift that 8.0.1 and/or flash on 8.0.1 are unstable.
I'll let you know if that solves this problem.
NOPE. This had no effect.

What's your favorite web app?

I'm looking for good web apps to put on my home screen.

If you are in Boston, Cambridge, New York or San Francisco you might find http://i.zami.com handy. It's an irreverent Yellow Pages by and for iPhone users with a novel way of listings stores by street. Also a nifty directory of the recent Macworld Expo.

What's the preferred way to load database properties (url...) in a web app?

In a simple stand alone app, I would normally use a properties file for the database url, username, and password instead of hardcoding the values. But I am not so sure about web apps. I don't even know where I put a properites file for a servlet to see. Is there a section in the deployment descriptor (web.xml) for me to define such properties?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
By the way, I am using the Tomcat version that came with the jwsdp-1.3.

Don't now if it's the recommended way, but we're doing this with the context-param elements of the web.xml file.
Example :
<web-app>
<display-name>MyWebApp</display-name>
<description>
A sample Web Application
</description>
<context-param>
<param-name>driver</param-name>
<param-value>org.postgresql.Driver</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>url</param-name>
<param-value>jdbc:postgresql://mydbhost/mydbname</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>user</param-name>
<param-value>dummy</param-value>
</context-param>
<context-param>
<param-name>password</param-name>
<param-value>garbled</param-value>
</context-param>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>60</session-timeout>
</session-config>
</web-app>
In our Web application, we read those values in the following way :
public class MySVCImpl implements ServiceLifecycle, MySVCIF {
public void init(Object context) {
ServletEndpointContext seContext = (ServletEndpointContext) context;
ServletContext sContext = seContext.getServletContext();
String driver=sContext.getInitParameter("driver");
String url=sContext.getInitParameter("url");
String user=sContext.getInitParameter("user"),
String password=sContext.getInitParameter("password"),
Hope this helps.

Email not working properly, web apps not at all, 3g crashes....what's next?

Email either won't connect or says no content. My web apps don't work at all since 2.0.2, they just crash before they ever start. And when I have 3g coverage, it crashes, and it really it was not faster than my old iphone. Do I have a bad phone? I am restoring now, we'll see if that does anything.

Most people posting here have a problem, but not all.
I'm not experiencing any of the problems provided by the OP. I'm also not having any 3G connection problems.
To the OP, if a Restore from your iPhone's backup does not resolve it, try restoring as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup. If there is a problem with your iPhone's backup, you are restoring the problem when restoring your iPhone from the backup.
If neither restore option resolves your problems, call AppleCare at (800) 694-7466, or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

Web app security not working

Hi,
I am using WebLogic 8.1 platform. I am trying to create a very basic secure web
app.
I created an App and created a web project. In it, I deleted the controller, etc
and just have index. jsp. All the index.jsp does is: <%= request.getRemoteUser()
%>
In web.xml I have
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Success</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>*</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
<realm-name>default</realm-name>
</login-config>
<security-role>
<role-name>*</role-name>
</security-role>
In weblogic.xml I have
<security-role-assignment>
<role-name>dealers</role-name>
<principal-name>dealer1</principal-name>
</security-role-assignment>
When I run the app, it just renders the JSP and does not challenge me to login.
Can you please help what is that I am doing wrong here?
Thanks,
John

Office Web Apps is not working

Hi,
We have tried to deploy Office Web Apps Server but, after a number of tests, we haven't been able to view PowerPoint presentations. We tested "everything" but it didn't work.
Finally, to simplify and focus the problem, we just deployed Office Web Apps Server "on its own", that is: just Internal URL, HTTP, Open From URL Enabled and sharing docs from a shared folder in the same server. So we have:
\\wacserver\share\<Docs> (Excel, Word and PowerPoint)
http://wacserver
They work both "/hosting/discovery" and "/op/generate.aspx".
If we try to view Excel doc, it works. If we try to view Word or PowerPoint, id doesn't work.
For PowerPoint, it appears the PowerPoint Web Apps frame (FILE, START SLIDE SHOW, SLIDE - OF -, NOTES...) and, in the center, an animation
"PowerPoint Web App .....". After a couple of minutes, it stops with "Either you've lost network connectivity or our server is to busy to handle your request".
What we have seen from different sources:
FIDDLER
======
/op/view.aspx?... Response 200
/p/PowerPointFrame.aspx?... Response 200
/p/imagehandler.ashx?... Response 202
13 petitions to /p/ppt/view.svc/jsonAnonymous/GetPresentation Response 200
PROCESS MONITOR
==============
There were some folders and registry keys Network Service was trying to access with ACCESS DENIED response. We gave it permissions and they disappeared.
SYSTEM is trying to access some registry keys (SpellingWcfprovider.exe => HKU\S-1-5-18, ImagingService.exe => HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options, and 2 or 3 more). It gets an ACCESS DENIED
but SYSTEM, we have checked, has "Full control" permissions in those keys or folders.
These errors appear by Office Web Server running itself, although we are not making a PowrPoint file request.
ULS
===
Several times, it tries to find the PowerPoint presentation in the caché, doesn't find it, manage to get it but, when trying to put it in the cache, it receives a disk space error:

Not enough disk space to write. Sleeping once.
Not enough disk space to write. Giving up.

The cache folder has enough disk size and PowerPoint.pptx file is just 30 KB.
It repeats this flow 3 times (as for the first HTTP requests).
During the 2 minutes test (until it fails) there are 14 traces like:
Failed to create process object for pid 7780 with exception System.ArgumentException: Process with an Id of 7780 is not running. at System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessById(Int32 processId) at Microsoft.Office.Web.Common.RequestPipe.ProcessManager.TryGetProcessObject(Int32
pid).
We have tried a number of things but none has worked. The farm has just one server and it says ist's unhealthy. We have Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. We have read some ways to fix the health, like HTTP Activation feature, but it only works
for Windows Server 2012 as fas as we know.
Has anybody experienced something like this or have a posible solution? Office Web Apps Server should be so easy to deploy but we have spent a lot of time with this.
Thank you very much. Your help will be very appreciated.
Kind regards.

Hi John,
According to your description, my understanding is that you cannot view the PowerPoint files in Office Web Apps in SharePoint.
Was there any error when you view the PowerPoint files in Office Web Apps?
You can troubleshoot the error following the link below:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx#tshoot
I also recommend to re-configure SharePoint to use the Office Web Apps Server to see if the issue still occurs.
