VSys One: Volunteer Management Software

VSys Web Application Notes

Restrictions

VSys Web application forms have two restrictions that "Desktop applications" do not: they must have only one page, and certain types of data (for example, entrant image and job assignments) may not be visible on the form. Once you've designated a form as VSys Web-based, you may see notes on the left side detailing any reasons why the current layout isn't valid for use with VSys Web. You'll have to correct any of these problems before saving the application layout.

When laying out an application form for the web, you have a few restrictions that you don't have for regular forms. Because VSys cannot control exactly how the form gets rendered in the user's web browser, you should:

• Limit the width of your form to 700 pixels wide, otherwise some controls will seem to run off the edge of the page. They'll work fine, but won't look right.
• Leave extra spacing between fields and labels so that they don't collide on the user's screen.
