The Portfolio database makes it easy to list and update the items on the
Portfolio pages of this web site. The output from the database, a series of
pop-up web pages (click to see one example page), has consistent formatting
for each of the categories of portfolio items.
Screen captures
TECH NOTE: Making pop-up web pages from a database Pop-up web pages can work like a remote control, much like the remote control used to operate your television, except the remote control's buttons are hyperlinks displaying web pages on the 'master' web browser screen. A database application that manufactures these pop-up pages makes it easy to maintain them, especially if the pop-up pages are subject to frequent change. An example I've made for personal use is a pop-up page to help monitor stock prices in a stock portfolio. Each of the hyperlinks in the pop-up page display a web page from the Yahoo! Investments web site that provides stock price and news information (click to see example). |
