Browser is what I understand the gang was working with so far.

Re: [Hardhats-members] VistA Community Con Call and Technical Meeting pre-Announcement

2005-01-29 Thread Jim Self
The GUI work in the recent meeting was M2Web and browser oriented, primarily 
MUMPS
producing HTML as output. Javascript is used in many of the existing 
applications and will
be used extensively in more advanced applications to increase client-side 
interactivity
but we didn't get into that much. Is that something you are interested in?

The most interesting development (to me) from the meeting was an experimental 
application
(^htDIQ) that uses the Fileman DBS interface. It generates on-the-fly input 
formats filled
with data from existing records and posts the data for verification. It is not 
saving the
data posted quite yet but that is just a matter of testing and working out 
details of the
interaction and handling error conditions. This is something I actually started 
at the
Seattle meeting in response to ideas and suggestions from Dave Whitten, then he 
and I both
worked on it a little since then.

H. What do you mean by Java Script? I assumed you were referring to the 
Javascript
language embedded in Mozilla and other browsers, but many people seem to 
confuse that with
Java.

Nancy,

Aren't you going to integrate your peds/obgyn project
in with CPRS?  If so, you can't really do that via
HTML/JavaScript etc.  It will need to be in Delphi (or
in a COM object that the Delphi code calls)

 Rare is it may seem that I actually know what I
 meant, I think.  I meant Java 
 Script.  Since you were talking about GUI, I was
 guessing you were planning 
 to push the envelope beyond plain Jane HTML, not
 that I think there is 
 anything bad about HTML.  
 
 I was daydreaming about a little more for the Pedi
 Project and thinking I 
 needed to dig into seeing what the full capabilities
 are of client side Java 
 Scripting are if that was along the lines you are
 thinking. Or were you 
 speculating more?  I am thinking about drawing a
 pretty graph, for instance, 
 with x and y pixel points using data (probably x,y
 pairs that can be scaled 
 up or down if need be) served up by a call to VistA.
 
 Any thought about that?
 
 If it is HTML you need help with, I might be able to
 contribute to that 
 effort. (Awesome. Something I can actually do! -
 maybe.)
