byExample IDN Site Open for Business

The Informix byExample site has become part of the Informix Developer's Network (IDN): <http://www.informix.com/idn/Examples/index.htm>; byExample provides dynamic, runnable examples and HTML-based How Tos designed to help customers, sales teams and field engineers use Informix technology with industry-standard applications and middleware. The initial focus of the site includes JDBC and CGI scripting, including Perl CGI (Apache) and details on retrieving Informix data with the Tengah and Gemstone/J application servers. We're also providing a new finderror (finderr) Java-based utility that allows you to retrieve Informix error message information instantly, anywhere you have access to the internet. Please check out <http://examples/finderror>; and let us know what you think. Topics are being added frequently. Next week, for example, a set of Informix/3rd party integration notes written by the Application Engineering team will be showcased. If you'd like to be informed when new material is added to our site, please drop us a note at ibyx@informix.com - tk for the byExample team
