RSS Feed 0.5 is now available in the PageBuilder Add-on Repository.

The RSS feed add-on allows you to display on your web pages the content of an RSS feed from a Blog or a news site.

It officially supports RSS 1 but most of the RSS 2.0 feeds also work.

This new version fixes a few bugs and adds more css styles, and more specifically a style to put around the title links so they are properly spaced.

The package now includes 2 add-on scripts. One that displays only the news or blog headline and the second that displays the Headline and the content of the news article.
There is also an option to limit the number of characters to display from the news article.
This package depends on the MagpieRSS.

Just posted on our video tutorial page - a new training tutorial on creating database driven web sites using Radria.

It’s a real-time recording where we start with an existing static site, create the database table, back-end administration and integrate the database into the web pages.

We use the PageBuilder database add-on for full WYSIWYG database integration in a HTML page. The data source is dropped into the page and the data fields are connected to it with drag & drop, point and click.

The tutorial also shows how to add Next and Previous buttons in order to browse the data without going back to the list of records.

In addition it covers advanced features like view / report object serialization with customization of the HTML/PHP code and in-page database forms.

It requires some basic knowledge of Radria and PageBuilder.

We’ve created a short tutorial on how to use the features of the YouTube REST API to add dynamic and personalized video content to a web site or web application.

It starts with installing the YouTube PageBuilder Add-on package and details all the features of the add-on, like displaying users or channel videos and filtering them by tags.

This version fix a few bugs for compatibility with the dojo package and the pagebuilder database package.

Its  the first public release available at source forge for download.

This release is the starting base for the Radria Project.

Today we release a new version of the PageBuilder database Add-on.

The concept of the PageBuilder Database Addon is to enable the creation of Database driven web applications with simples point and clicks and drag drop for prebuilt scripts.

Version 1.15 a mainly a bug fix release for all the beta features we had on the work for the last 2 months.

So this new version include a new concept to build web forms.
It looks a lot like the old FileMaker.

If you never used FileMaker let me give more details.

You just add individual fields that you can drag and drop anywhere in the page to create a total custom data view or form.
The fields by default are in a display / view mode, and you can add an Edit button in the page to make all the fields editable in a form.

The field in view and edit mode stay a the same positions in the page. Making the editing very intuitive and simple.

The look can be customized with css style sheets and any field type can be connected to your fields with a custom Registry.
This mean you can, for example, add Ajax suggest drop down or rich text editor automaticaly in your form.

We will soon prepare a video tutorial to demonstrate how to use this new feature.

Today we are opening the Radria web site to a small group.

To activate the full access to the beta site follow this link: http://radria.sqlfusion.com/beta.php

We need some feedback on the site before the full opening on November 8th.

We are very excited, Radria has a huge potential to improve web application development.
To unleash this potential we need a web site that can support a community of web designer and web developers.

The Radria web site is composed of a Wiki for the documentation, a blog for the news and information, a forum for support and exchanges and a Task manager to track what needs to be done to improve Radria

We also have a mailing list hosted on sourceforge: radria-general@lists.sourceforge.net

Users and contributers can work together on improving this next generation of web development tools.

Happy coding!

The new version of Radria is out.

It includes numerous bug fixes in the publishing and package management.
In this version we also have introduced a new command for the package installation: exec

The exec command allows you to execute a script in your project during the package installation.
This allows you to setup custom configurations that are not allowed by the general install commands.

Radria 0.8.2 is available for download on the radria site.

We have created a package for the great Vanilla forum application.

Its in the package repository: webapp ( Applications for your Web Site )

In the E-Commerce package repository there is a new google analytics package.

This is a very simple package that just add the google analytic javascript code in the header of all your site / application pages.

We fixed a few bugs in the following fieldtype packages:

• field_date_popup: Display a popup calendar to select a date
• field_text_suggest: Add an Ajax drop down with suggestions from sql query results (added documentation)
• field_color_picker: Show a Photoshop like color selector in javascript. (now reload the previously selected color)

You can upgrade your packages.
