Starting a Database On-Demand client
To start a Database On-Demand client on the client workstation, use one of the following two methods:
- Connect your browser to a predefined Database On-Demand HTML file,
by typing the URL of the HTML file into the address field of your
browser (or by clicking a link that directs the browser to that URL).
The format for the URL is:
where server_name is the host name or IP address of the Host On-Demand server, hod_alias is the alias of the publish directory, and client_name is the name of the HTML file. For example, assuming that www.myHODServer.com is your Host On-Demand server and that hod is the alias of the publish directory, then the URL for the download version of the Database On-Demand client is:http://server_name/hod_alias/client_name.htmlhttp://www.myHODServer.com/hod/HODDatabase.html - Connect your browser to the Host On-Demand Clients HTML file,
and then click the link for the Database On-Demand client that you
want to run. The URL of the Clients HTML file is:
where server_name and hod_alias have the same meanings as above. In the name of the file HODMain_xx, the xx is a two-letter mnemonic for the language that you want to use. For example, for English, the file is named HODMain_en.html, and the full URL is (assuming the same server and alias as above):http://server_name/hod_alias/HODMain_xx.htmlhttp://www.myHODServer.com/hod/HODMain_en.html
