SQL_CHECKBOX

In the form a checkbox is displayed. It depends on the result of an SQL query if the checkbox is marked or not.

If the SQL query does not return a result line or a result with the value 0 or "" (empty string), the tick is deleted from the checkbox. If the SQL query returns a result line with a different value than 0, the tick is set in the checkbox.

SQL_LIST

An element with the result value of an SQL query is displayed. The SQL query is always processed based on a selected JobRouter database connection. The database connection should stay active after its opening in one  element, so the need to build up the connection again for other elements can be omitted.

 

As a result for an SQL query a result list with one or two columns is expected. In case of one column, it is used as name and value for the list entries. If there are two columns, the first is used as name and the second as value.

 

Please note: The desktop versions of the elements Autocomplete and Pickbox are not supported here.
