Peter,

In the last several years we used DHTMLX javascript tools to replicate the
4D interface on the web.

The DHTMLX grid tool is quite advanced. We used it for both record listings
and included form listings. Did everything we needed.

(dhtmlx.com)

We defined our grids in xml, and loaded them from json. There was a learning
curve to get this to work. 

(again) There is a learning curve.

Simple XML output listing:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<rows>
<head>
<column width="*" type="ro" color="" sort="int" align="left" tableNo="10"
fieldNo="4" id="yes" hidden="yes">AllergiesUniqueID</column>
<column width="*" type="ro" color="" sort="str" align="left" tableNo="5"
fieldNo="61"
method="Query([Resident];[Resident]Res_Number=[Allergies]Res_Number)"
execType="query">Resident Name</column>
<column width="*" type="ro" color="" sort="str" align="left" tableNo="10"
fieldNo="2" >Allergy</column>
<column width="*" type="ro" color="" sort="str" align="left" tableNo="10"
fieldNo="3" hidden="yes">Facility</column>
<event>
        <preSelection
type="4D">A4D_Facility_PreSelection(Table(10))</preSelection>
</event>
<afterInit>
        <call command="attachHeader">
                <param>#text_filter,#select_filter,#select_filter</param>
        </call>
</afterInit>
</head>
</rows>

After we got over the "hump" working with these tools was very productive.

David
