Demo

This demonstration uses the graphical template which requires IE5+/NS6+/FF1+ on the client side. (Note that PHPMaker's default template does not have this requirement.)

The PHP scripts are generated by PHPMaker without hand-coding.

More detailed description of this demo project is provided in the tutorials of the help file.
