Database Reference
In-Depth Information
Figure 15-10. The People database now has a Google Maps web page showing right on the detail
layout. FileMaker's web viewer lets you embed any web page on the layout, so you can save count-
less trips to your favorite web resources. Unfortunately, web pages tend to be big. You'll learn how
to give this map more breathing room without investing in a 30-inch screen on page 612.
Web Viewer Options
FileMaker offers up a few configuration options for web viewers in addition to the page they
should load. The bottom of the Web Viewer Setup dialog box (
Figure 15-9
) includes five
checkboxes to adjust the behavior of this particular web viewer.
Allow Interaction with Web Viewer Content
When the “Allow interaction with web viewer content” option is turned on (as it is for your
map), FileMaker lets you actually
use
the web page it loads. Specifically, you can click a link
on the page to navigate to a new page. You can also use shopping carts, send email messages,
watch video, or use any other features on the page.
