You can read a nice and lengthy article about it and download a sample technique file from FileMaker Advisor over at: <a href="http://filemakeradvisor.com/doc/18162" rel="nofollow">http://filemakeradvisor.com/doc/18162</a> As for your question, I wouldn't necessarily consider this an API. This is just using Flash graphics inside a web viewer control. But because the web viewer is just a standard web page, you could by all means insert PDF graphics and JPEGS. Remember, the HTML web viewer is displaying standard HTML pages. It's basically a browser in FileMaker. What you choose to do with that browser is up to you.

It is still a demo but can match and better any of the competition such as foresind.com Above is our corporate web site done in PHP www.woodtech.net This directory called Mid-Canada Forestry Resources is still a beta and not open to the public. If you desire I can send you the access codes, If it were not for these three problems I would not need PHP. 1) Non-browezer navigation controls 2) URL does not work if computer using pop-ups ? Not sure if the new web site (portal) in 8.5 will work off the server. 3)Email is being handled by our server company (Robo-mail) (NOT SURE HOW EFFECTIVE CONNECTING TO OWN EMAIL ADDRESS WILL WORK on the Server Question: What are you refering to above as flash-graphics? We are trying to develop our own website with IWP so we can integrate our print magazine with our on-line directory. Will this API still allow us to change page layout, ad in flash ads and pop in jpeg or PDF Magazine pages? Just put up my first IWP on line.
