		<title>New Features in FileMaker Pro 11</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today, 9th March 2010, FileMaker Inc. announced the new FileMaker version 11. There are many new features in Filemaker 11. I like to tell you about some of these features. Enjoy!

		<title>The Future of Triggers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Currently I work a lot with the script triggers in FileMaker 10. They are a great tool to create a user-friendly interface. But working so intensively with triggers also reveals some missing features. For example, a script trigger is active all the time. As soon as a trigger event is assigned to a script, it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Logical Calculation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The basis of each computer operation is binary logic. Zeros and ones are transformed with simple operations into zeros and ones again. FileMaker is hiding its binary roots very successfully. Only now and then the user can catch a glimpse of it. Some custom functions use binary elements, e. g. Get( ActiveModifierKeys ). And of [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Design</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is time for a fresh, new look. At first I liked the Carrington Blog theme I used before. But after a couple of months I had more and more problems with it. For example, the comment column becomes very crowded.
I was always looking for a WordPress theme with a liquid design. Columns should adjust [...]]]></description>

		<title>Key-Controlled</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In my projects, I often use modifier keys (SHIFT, CTRL, …) to offer the user additional features. For example, I use buttons to go to the previous or next record. This behavior changes, when the CTRL key is pressed. Now, the buttons redirect to the first or last record.
A function from my Custom Function Vault [...]]]></description>

		<title>More Fun with Parameters (2)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This article is part of my series Custom Function Vault. Here I describe miscellaneous custom functions to verify required script parameters.

text.between( text; start; end; type )

		<description><![CDATA[This article is part of my series Custom Function Vault. Here I describe a custom function for working with parameters.

param.assign( params )


From the Beginning
In my previous entry I described two customs functions for managing parameters: param and param.get. They encode and decode named (script) parameters. I started using them a lot and began thinking about [...]]]></description>

param( key; value )
param.get( key; params )


Working with Script Parameters
FileMaker knows only one script parameter. To pass multiple values to a script, you have to look for a different way. Using table fields or global variables might [...]]]></description>

		<title>Self-made Toolbar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You might have read my April Fools&#8217; joke about Filemaker 11. Then you know that I do not like the new status toolbar. At the glance it looks nice and adds a modern look to FileMaker.

But after working with it for a while too many annoyances and problems emerged:


It requires too much space. Usually monitors [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever thought about the future of FileMaker? Here you a first glimpse at some awesome new features.
FileMaker will deny any information you will see here about a future version of their database program. I am under no non-disclosure agreement. The only NDA I got says something about FileMaker 10 (a typo?). FileMaker 10 [...]]]></description>
