Creating a new control

I have created a new table called 'Candidate's'   I am now trying to create a new control (tab) to show the new fields from the candidate table.  Is the only way to create a new control a custom HTML page that is uploaded and referenced or is there another was within the SF customization features within the UI.  If the HTML option is the only way , are there any examples to reference.

 

Thanks

With sforce controls you have the option of using any client side browser technology (javascript, Java, ActiveX, etc) to create your form; the choice depends on which you are most comfortable with, and what is best for your customers and users.

We are working on creating samples for these; in the mean time, if useful I can provide a sample Javascript - however, its pretty extreme as Javascript goes (its a full SOAP client), so unless you are fairly comfortable with that language I'd suggest something else.

We also have partners working on creating easy to use, graphic tools for creating s-controls.  Stay tuned.

Would it be possible to get a copy of the SOAP client code ? I am trying to make SOAP api calls in a sforce control using the webservice.htc behavior and am not having much luck.

Thanks,

How can I get hold of this sample you mention, even if its a full SOAP client? Thanks!

AdamG,

Can you send me a copy of that code as well? We are having an issue with an S-Control. We have the control working but on the target form we cannot seem to handle the line breaks from the description field. We are using Javascript and SOAP.

Thanks!

John
