Returns a remote document. Remote documents in Hyperwave notation
|
|
|
|
are documents retrieved from an external source. Common remote
|
|
|
|
documents are for example external web pages or queries in
|
|
|
|
a database. In order to be able to access external sources
|
|
|
|
throught remote documents Hyperwave introduces the HGI (Hyperwave
|
|
|
|
Gateway Interface) which is similar to the CGI. Currently, only
|
|
|
|
ftp, http-servers and some databases can be accessed by the HGI.
|
|
|
|
Calling <function>hw_getremote</function> returns the document from
|
|
|
|
the external source. If you want to use this function you should be
|
|
|
|
very familiar with HGIs. You should also consider to use PHP instead
|
|
|
|
of Hyperwave to access external sources. Adding database support
|
|
|
|
by a Hyperwave gateway should be more difficult than doing it in PHP.
