Swiss Web Factory Website with DMXzone Extensions

Today, we present you an awesome piece of work that André Bender, the highly talented founder of Swiss Web Factory and long time DMXzone user accomplished, using the Dynamic Database Connectivity Collection PHP. He started designing and programming websites in 1996 and founded his company in 2001, which is based in Basel, Switzerland. So check out his amazing skills and get inspired from the great job that he did, implementing DMXzone Database extensions on his website.

Multi-step Form with Dependable Dynamic Dropdowns

Recently, we received a user request on how to create multi-step form with dependable dynamic dropdowns and today we have an amazing step by step video tutorial to cover the process. We used the Dynamic Database Connectivity Collection PHP but it also applies for ASP users of the same collection. For the purpose of this movie we also used DMXzone Tabs. If you follow the instructions you'll need to create data sources, add the dependable dynamic dropdowns in each tab, apply the disable tabs behavior on page load and add continue buttons that are attached to tab behaviors.

How It's Made: ATV Store Showcase

If you missed our ATV Store Showcase last week or you still haven't figured out how we did it with our DMXzone extensions, today we have a great video tutorial to show you the process of filtering database results. Using HTML5 Data Bindings, DMXzone Database Connector PHP/ASP, HTML5 Data Bindings Formatter and DMXzone Slider we setup a database connection and inserted a repeat region on our page, added two hidden fields for min. and max. range values, and added filter to our price column. All of this you can watch in our movie below.
