Now, let's flesh out our Hello World application a bit. The SEND HTML TEXT command can send full-fledged HTML. Go back to 4D's Design environment (choose "Design" from the Use menu), bring up the Explorer again ("Explorer" under the Tools menu), and double-click on the On Web Connection method again to edit it. The first thing we'll do is create a variable called $tHTML. We declare the variable using the C_TEXT command. Then we will fill the $tHTML variable with some simple HTML. Please type the following into your On Web Connection method.
C_TEXT($tHTML)
$tHTML:="<H1>Hello, World!</H1>"
$tHTML:=$tHTML+"<BR>This web page was dynamically generated by
4D!"
SEND HTML TEXT($tHTML)
Your On Web Connection method should look like the one above. You should save the method; you can also click the close box to save it.
Return to your web browser, and re-load the page.
Your web page should now look like the one above. If it does not, hold down the "Control" key (on Windows) or "Command" key (on Macintosh) when you click the Reload button. It is possible that your web browser had cached the page and didn't actually re-issue a request to 4D for a new one. Holding down Control or Command when you click Reload should force your web browser to make a new request.
