Where to Put Web Page Files

When you initialized your project, you provided Iron Speed Designer with a folder location where it creates your application.  That directory and its sub-directories contain the input files, including your application’s layout pages, used to generate your application.  You may place your layout pages anywhere in or underneath your application’s directory, for example:

…\<Application Folder>\

…\<Application Folder>\Customers

Simply copy or move your layout page to an appropriate directory in your application’s directory.  Iron Speed Designer automatically recognizes pages placed here and makes them part of your application.  Note:  Layout pages are normal HTML files with .HTML file extensions.  It works best if you make sure your layout pages have one of these file extensions.  Iron Speed Designer recognizes layout pages only with these file extensions.

Linking Add, Edit, Show Record, and Show Table Pages

You may want to link together several layout pages after generating them with the Application Wizard.  In particular, generated Show Table layout pages contain Edit and Show buttons as placeholder links to Edit Record and Show Record pages you may want to connect.  However, these links are not connected and clicking them results in a “page not found” error.  You can use the Application Wizard to generate these Edit Record and Show Record pages, as well as Add Record pages.

The Show Table pages generated by the Application Wizard contain Edit and Show icons (notepad and magnifying glass, respectively) that are not hooked up.  You may optionally remove the Edit and Show buttons, or connect them to pages.

Use the tag’s Properties dialog to connect these unspecified buttons.
