I learn by seeing how things are done by others... I struggled with dojo because I could not find examples! This database has several dojo elements exampled. You will also see what is needed to incorporate dojo into your code, what needs to be installed locally/server and some different ways to use dojo (pass thru html or within field properties)

credits:
This database is a variation of a database used at a lotusphere 2008 session: SpeedGeeking. I have changed the name to prevent users from confusing this with the original... and not to take any credit for the work done by Scott Good or Henry Newberry.

I saw dojo illustrated at Lotusphere, and read all about it on various Lotus/IBM sites.. however, reading the documentation at the dojo web sites didn't help since I wanted to implement this on domino. After several days of experimentation I found Henry's database and I could finally see dojo working. I needed more field types and after additional experimentation learned many things.

This database will show you the things I learned, and hopefully, save you some time in your exploration. Feedback is welcomed, and my thanks are returned to Scott Good and Henry Newberry.

This is not an application. This is a simple database with one view and one form with dojo type fields exampled on a form.

You can use/develop with dojo locally! You don't need to install it on your server to see how it works.
Download this database and launch it via Notes (or your browser) for further instructions.

ACL: -Default- is Manager and Anonymous is Manager.
I've included some comments on the form and would welcome any questions you have too.
