Visual Editor

WYSIWYG Visual Editor in PHPRunner allows you to customize the look and feel of your application with ease of drag-n-drop. PHPRunner will present you with the proposed layout for each page. However, all of the elements on the pages can easily be modified. The Visual Editor allows you to drag and drop, copy and paste the objects around the page. For all of the fields and labels on the page you can change the font, size, color, style, indentation, and alignment. The Visual Editor allows you to jump into generated HTML code and make your modifications there.

Reports and Charts

PHPRunner let's you build sophisticated color-rich, highly customizable interactive charts and reports to complement your website. You will be able to choose from multiple chart and report types. You can also get a Web Charts and Reports Builder as part of the Enterprise Edition of PHPRunner, which will let you build the charts and reports online.

Just like in the software, Web Charts and Reports Builder offers a large selection of charts and reports that take just minutes to build. You can reuse the same security settings you've establish in the program to decide which data sources you would like to expose to the users, and what permissions those users will have.

Application Preview

After you have built your web application, PHPRunner provides you with multiple options how to preview it. The best option is to run your application using built-in Web server. You can also upload files to the remote Web server using FTP client. You can publish your application to our Demo Account Server or simply sign up for our Web hosting specifically dedicated to PHPRunner customers.

SQL Editor

PHPRunner automatically creates a SQL query that can be easily modified in the graphical pane or as text. The SQL Editor also allows you to preview the results of your SQL statement, create joins with drag and drop and specify the criteria (where, order by, group by etc).

Security

PHPRunner allows you to password-protect the access to your web application. You can either hardcode the username and password or store the login combinations in the database. PHPRunner also allows you to set the user groups permission where you can restrict the tables and views, pages, and site functionality either right in the software or online.

Enterprise Edition of PHPRunner adds Active Directory support

User Login Settings

PHPRunner lets you create a New User Registration page as well as secure your pages from SPAM abusers using CAPTCHA protection, which easily determines whether the user is a computer or a human. You can also restrict the users from entering weak passwords and allow them to request password reminders.

Dynamic Permissions

With dynamic permissions PHPRunner will let you create and modify the permissions and assign users to certain groups right from the generated web application. Every time you will need to modify the permissions, create a new group or assign users to groups you will not have to rebuild your project. Dynamic Permissions are especially helpful in larger corporations where the application security administrators are not the actual users of PHPRunner software.

Style Editor

With Style Editor in PHPRunner you can customize the visual appearance of your web application by selecting from a wide range of page layouts and color schemes and modifying them. You can instantly preview the results.

Events

With PHPRunner you can expand the functionality of your application by inserting events- fragments of PHP code. You will be able to define what an event should do and when it should be executed. A typical event would be to send an email with a new data, save data in another table, check record uniqueness, show related to current record info etc. You can either select one of predefined events or write your own from scratch.

Master-Detail Relationships

In PHPRunner all of your data sources and the relationships between them, including master-detail, are visually displayed making them very intuitive to understand and manage. You will be able to link two or more data sets with easy of drag-n-drop. Once you have the relationships established, in the application you can navigate through master records and quickly jump over to the details of those records. Some basic scenarios of master-detail relationships would be customer and orders data, patient and medical records or student-and courses information.

Rich Text Editor Controls

PHPRunner supports three third party rich text editors to allow for a great control over content formatting including common structural treatments like lists; formatting treatments like bold and italic text, and drag-and-drop inclusion and sizing of images. The three options include the Basic Rich Text Editor, CKEditor, and InnovaStudio Editor that vary in features, versatility, and footprint.

Images and Documents

PHPRunner lets you upload the documents and images of any type to the database or to a directory on the web server. You can also create the image thumbnails on the fly, resize them on upload, and display them using iBox.

Dependent Drop-down Boxes

With PHPRunner, you can use linked drop-down boxes, where values shown in the second drop-down box depend on the value you've chosen in the first one. You can link together as many drop-down boxes as you need in a linear chain or have multiple drop-down boxes link to the same master drop-down control.

Edit Controls

PHPRunner offers a large variety of edit controls, which allow you to customize the appearance of the fields on Edit and Add pages. The field formats that you can choose from include text field, date, time, check box, radio button, file/image, lookup wizard and others.

PHPRunner will let you upload the entire set of pages to your web server via FTP. You will be able to set the upload properties based on your needs.

Create/Modify Database Tables

PHPRunner will let you create and modify tables right in the software. You will have access to table properties where you can set the field names, types, sizes, as well as set the primary key field. If you don't have a database at all, PHPRunner will let you create one too.

Cascade Menu Builder

Cascade Menu Builder lets you organize your tables into a multi-level menu for quicker navigation. This feature is particularly useful to users with large number of tables. You can have as many groups and subgroups as you need. Depending on your page layout the cascade menu will appear as a horizontal menu, vertical menu, or a tree-like vertical menu.
