Themeswiki.org: Customizing Apex using Oracle Application Express

by Douwe Pieter van den Bos on August 14, 2009 · 0 comments

On the Themeswiki.org website they have put an extract of one of my chapters in my book ‘Oracle Application Express Forms Conversion’ online. First I was a bit confused; is this an example of book-piracy? Do these guys just take a book out of the shelves and copy and paste a bit onto their website? Until I noticed that the wiki page mentioned me and Packt Publishing as the copyright owners. With a quick email I got the confirmation that it was legit. Although the title is a bit weird, (Customizing APEX using APEX? What’s that about?) it can be a very helpful part of the book. It describes the actions you need to take after conversion of you Oracle Forms applications into Application Express. Some actions are still needed to make you application look good! The wiki describes some of the steps you can take in order to make the pages look nice, like the menu on the home page, the lists of values and the titles of pages. Of course, it’s just a small part of an actual Forms Conversion project. In the book itself there are a lot more steps described and on formsconversion.nl we can discuss a lot more information!
