php dialog widgets?

I am working on a console app based on dialog ( see e.g.
http://hightek.org/dialog/ ). I would also like to have a web-based
interface with a similar look and feel.

Has anyone come across a php based dialog widget toolkit? This would be
really handy....

Thanks,

Any "interface" to PHP is achieved via HTML, and is really nothing to do
with PHP itself.
That is to say; HTML is the output from a PHP script execution which then
becomes the vehicle of input to a subsequent script execution.

With Dynamic HTML and Javascript you can construct a user interface as
bepoke and elaborate as you wish.
Alternatively Flash can be used as a rich media front end to a server
application powered by PHP.

True but.... I was hoping that somewhere there is a ready-to-go forms
generation library that I can use.... Much in the way that dialog
provides a ready set of widgets to use in generating console dialog boxes.

Unfortunately I don't have javascript available... I need to use pure
HTML, no java[script], flash, etc.

I didn't quite understand your last remark.. "I don't have javascript
available", but never the less...
You can achieve the desired visual effect quite easily with simple
table definitions...
No DHTML involved...
Once you get the first one done, the rest should be a breeze... the
problem lies with the operations or the way the system will work. You
will not get the same type of navigation using plain HTML.
Since I presume you must be developing htis for an old/simple browser,
you probably don't have any of the CSS capabilities to make this
possible.

Hello all, I'm working on a little application using PyQt. The main window is just a dialog with 2 progress bars and a few labels. In its original form, the dialog started, then ran a function which downloaded a directory full of files from an ftp server, using an ftplib.FTP object's retrbinary function. http://xoffender.de/Downloads/screenie4.png Now, inside the callback function of the retrbinary call, I was calling the

Hello! I've downloaded wxPython and have been playing with the demo. It seems as if wxPython comes with more widgets that wxWidgets itself? I assume they are just additional widgets provided with wxPython, built using wxWidgets? Is this correct? Or are all the same widgets available in wxPython also directly provided for in wxWidgets? Thanks!

Hi, I'd like to turn a command-line script into a Windows GUI app using the native widgets so as to reduce the size of the binary (ie. no QT, wxWidgets, et al.)

I am using an easygui(http://www.ferg.org/easygui/index.html) dialog (enterbox) to retrieve some info from a user. The program then goes on and does a bit of processing, sometimes for several minutes. In the meantime, the dialog stays there, dead but visible. I would prefer that either another dialog ("Processing....") would be shown while background stuff happens, or that the current dialog would simply disappear. Ideas? TIA, Bob

I have built what I think should be a dialog box. It contains 4 tabbed panes for generating a range of colors. Each tabbed pane consists of a panel with all the widgets on them including the OK and Cancel buttons. These buttons have to be on the panels themselves so that they can create the color range from the current settings on the panel and return the result via a delegate to the main dialog form. The problem I have is that the OK...

Hello: Below I have included a stripped down version of the GUI I am working on. It contains 2 dialog boxes - one main and one settings. It has the following problems, probably all related, that I am hoping someone knows what I am doing wrong: 1) Pressing the Settings.. Button multiple times, brings up many instances of the Settings Panel. I just want it to bring up one. Is there an easy way to do that?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
