I intend to buy, but some issues?

OK, So I would like to build simple store, web based inventory DB, with POS, with add product, add to cart, add sale, something practical, calculating quantity, to be able to export few .pdf files, send to email, auto store issued docs and some other options...
 
 have downloaded trial 2.7.2

1st issue? I got this msg:
trial software failed to start
string was not recognized as a valid DateTime
something went wrong. please visit phprad.com for more info
 is it ok?

2nd issue:
my understanding of php and JS is basic!  Here I found a lot of functions and is hard to see hole picture
Do you have more documentation for the structure? more details of the functions? 

3th issue:
search issue : so i have product table and category table,
relation is made and so category_id, calls category_name  in product.list
why search option is not searching by category?

4th:
I have few good working script for add to cart and I'm submitting by link in product.list , so $_session[product_id]  is made, but there is some delay, needs refresh.... may by due to form issue  ... or my function_count_cart is not loading first time...
question is : Are providing similar solutions for add to cart?  or we should find our self how to solve? Do you have tutorial?
Do you provide projects as simple store, simple inventory, invoice etc...?

5th:
export to word/pdf gives blank pages? why?

1st issue? I got this msg:
Provide a screenshot of the message.

2nd issue:
At the top of the phprad app, you will see a View Helper with a list of variables/functions and their explanations.

3th issue:
Because of issues encountered in previous versions of phprad due to search on a master-details page.

4th:
Not clear enough.

5th:
From my end everything works fine please make sure the page you are exporting contains data and that you are using default settings to make sure the issue is not with your export configuration.

1# see attached
2# I saw that, ok
3# So how to search, in both tables then? combined table?
4#  I want to make function_add_ to_document by session to submit information from different tables like: company_table(name,adress,email) , condition_table(case1,case2...n), product_table(prod_1,prod_2...n), partner_table(name,info,etc) and so that info will go to form_page by button "add"  right next to view,edit,delete in list.php.
question is :  Do you have function for add to session like that or  function_add_to_cart.... ?
I just like to keep in the framework in order, to keep updating site in future...
5# export to word/pdf give error see attached, excel is OK, csv gives monkeys for all Cyrillic... my BD_collation  utf8_general_ci

1# Go to C:\ProgramData\RadSystems\PHPRad\1.0.0.0\ and delete this files( PHPRadClassicDefaultSettings-2.7.1.bin and PHPRadClassicDefaultSettings.bin) if they exists and start the phprad app.
3# please use the join configuration in list page properties to join tables and configure search on them.
4# yes there is a function for it, if you read through the view helper you will see that there is a function called set_cookie($name,$value,$days=30), get_cookie($name)and clear_cookie($name) with their explanation on how to use it.
5# follow this https://phprad.com/forum/index.php?topic=748.0 to solve the issue.

1#after delete file  PHPRadClassicDefaultSettings-2.7.1.bin come back over and over... /I will manage with that ...will see logs,services, reinstall.../
3#ok
4#ok
5# I will look on that, but not sure will work, as Cyrillic here came from mysql_db, not from language.ini

Thank you !

Dobrin

hi,
the aim of my project is to issue documents, so pdf export is key for me
pdf export is working fine in english/latin but not in Cyrillic?
I have try to identify where to look and few possible problems:
#browsers - same story, all browsers give same error
#collation - I have try that: changing collation in the db, but no...
#php version - 7.4.1. all looks fine for me
#font issue - ? what font uses, are they Cyrillic compatible? where to look
#report_layout.php - Maybe the key is here? - I wrote some Cyrillic  manually ... for test:  there was no error, but pdf was with monkey on that place?  css?
#maybe we should look in Warning msg:  DOMDocumentFragment::appendXML(), Warning: DOMNode::appendChild()....
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4645738/domdocument-appendxml-with-special-characters - some talks about...

I've study your code to find a way, but to complex for me, I'm lost

@dobsun‍ thanks for the info, I will pass it across to the dev team.
But first, do the following and let me know how it goes.
open this file system/BaseView.php with a code editor, locate line 743, you should see the following:
Code: [Select]
$fragment->appendXML($html);
replace it with this:
Code: [Select]
$fragment->nodeValue = $html;

@dobsun‍ Following the second answer from here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/990181/dompdf-problem-with-cyrillic-characters, add this code
Code: [Select]
body { font-family: DejaVu Sans; }
to your custom css and preview.
If you want to follow the steps stated here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/990181/dompdf-problem-with-cyrillic-characters, this is where you can locate the DOMPDF folder in phprad vendor\dompdf\dompdf.

Hi,
little success !
in report_layout.php
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
in .htaccess
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

export to word document is working perfect!
export to pdf document is working, at least no errors,  but we have ? ? ? ? ? ? instead of cyrillic !
help me find a solution for that?

fixed, finally ! I was trying with DejaVu Sans before then with Arial so when I back to DejaVu Sans it worked!

If other have similar issue  ? ? ? ? ? ? instead of cyrillic or empty pages  or Warning msg:  DOMDocumentFragment::appendXML(), Warning: DOMNode::appendChild()....when exporting to PDF/WORD,
please do the following:

find report_layout.php
put that in head:
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
in <style> find font-family and change to:
font-family: DejaVu Sans;

If your Apache is not accessible put/change this in:
.htaccess
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

Take care!
