Also increasing the resource object validity time to a few days doesn't hurt.. It would mean that the client would use whats in the browser cache instead of downloading form resources such as images etc.. On production environments you can either disable recaching or set recaching to a high value of a few days assuming that not many changes are going to be ported to productions too frequently.. there is always the Flush cache option to manually flush the cache when objects in production change..

And, depending on the customer, when they log in, I want them to see their own background. I want it to be dynamic, so we're not always having to add more buttons and code with each new company we support. Now, I just have a form that stores my companies, there is a field on there called Banner URL that we store a url to the banner bmp file on the webserver. I then dynamically pull that across into the view field based on the company the customer belongs to. Now, if we have a new company, we just have to place the bmp file out on the webserver for their custom banner, and then when we create their company entry in the company form (actually called Organizations), we just have to put the URL to the bmp file there.

I set a tmp field to the url of a banner.bmp that is out on my webserver. Then, I use a set fields to set the view field = $tmpbanner URL$ In the user tool, if I change from a submit window to a search window and then back to a submit and a search again, then the banner will finally display. It will not display at first like it should. Also, when the banner finally does display, there is a whitespace between the bmp file that it is loading and the top and the left of the view field, even though the view field was smaller than the image it was loading. Does anyone know how to fix the whitespace issue? I have already turned off borders for my view field.
