Scripts

The system has its own programming language. It consists of 4D code, together with a range of functions, which together can be used to add custom functionality to your site. Program code can be incorporated in templates, other pages, tokens and components.

Scripts can run at any time - for example
  • every week
  • every day
  • every hour
or when something happens - for instance
  • when a document is saved
  • when a field is modified.

So scripts perform customised tasks that the system would not normally do. However, for security and other reasons we retain control over who can write and execute scripts. Please contact us if you would like us to write or help you with scripts.

There are hundreds of scripts already written to perform various tasks - for instance

  • to create a tab delimited or XML file when a document is saved
  • send autoresponse emails
