Flexible form modification web server system

Abstract

This invention discloses a web page server system, comprising at least one web page, a database, a table configuration file, and a table generation module. The web page has a table with multiple data columns. Since the table configuration file records the header and data source of each data column, the table generation module can generate the table based on the configuration file. To change the table, only the content of the table configuration file needs to be modified; database operations and web page modifications are not required.

Claims

1. A web page server system, comprising: A webpage includes a table with multiple data columns. Each data column includes a label field and a data field. The data field displays a piece of data, and the label field displays a title describing the data. A database stores multiple data records required by the table. Each data record includes source code and corresponding source data. A table configuration file includes multiple table definitions. Each table definition includes a sequence definition, a title definition, and a source definition. The sequence definition determines the order of each data column in the table on the webpage. The title definition determines the title displayed in the label field of each data column in the table on the webpage. The source definition of the table is used to determine the source code of the data displayed in the data field of each data column of the table on the webpage; and a table generation module is used to generate the table according to the table configuration file, wherein the table generation module fills the tag definition of each table definition in the table configuration file into the tag field of each data column of the table on the webpage, and finds the corresponding source data from the data table in the database according to the source definition of each table definition in the table configuration file, and fills them into the data field of each data column of the table on the webpage respectively; wherein the number of data columns in the table on the webpage is determined according to the number of table definitions in the table configuration file.

2. The web page server system as described in claim 1, wherein the web page has a PDF file output button and a PDF output program module, and when the PDF file output button is clicked to trigger the PDF output program module, the PDF output program module outputs a PDF file according to the web page and the form configuration file, and the PDF file has a PDF form with data content identical to the form.

3. The web page server system as described in claim 2, wherein the layout configuration of the PDF table is different from that of the table.

4. The web page server system as described in claim 1 includes an editing interface for modifying the contents of the table configuration file.

5. A web page server system as described in any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein, This webpage is a dynamic webpage.

6. The web page server system as described in claim 5, wherein, This dynamic webpage is either an ASP webpage or a JSP webpage.

7. A web page server system as described in any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein, Each table definition in the table configuration file also includes a type definition, which determines the data type of the data displayed in the data field of each data column of the table on the webpage; wherein, the data in the data field of each data column of the table on the webpage displays different appearances according to its data type.

8. A web page server system as described in any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein, Each table definition in the configuration file also includes a status definition, which determines whether each data column of the table on the webpage is displayed.

9. The web page server system as described in claim 7, wherein, Each table definition in the configuration file also includes a status definition, which determines whether each data column of the table on the webpage is displayed.
