almystersv Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hi Guys, I would like to have links to Access Databases on my php page. Is there any other way than <a href="TestDatabase.mdb">Invites Not Renewed</a> ?? As it is very slow and a pop up appears asking the user to open or save it. Any ideas will be brilliant.

helraizer Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Make sure when the user goes onto it all they see is the form they should, with no toolbars, menus etc.. Then perhaps (haven't tested it) if you use <iframe src="TestDatabase.mdb"> and it will appear within the page. That should work, or do you want it to be for them to download it?

almystersv Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 no, i want it to act a centralising tool so it links to all the databases that are spreadout across the different drives. So the user can click on a database they wish to open and it takes them to it.

trq Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Id'e suggest building an interface to these databases in php rather then having a browser (assuming IE) attempt to open them. I'm not even sure thats possible, but of course it would be very slow.
