A Useful Struts Resource

2003-01-22 Thread JONATHAN PHILIP HOLLOWAY
For those of you struggling with Struts at the moment, I know I am : ) there's a 
good resource at:

http://struts.application-servers.com/

A new version has just been released and it looks quite nifty, take a look at the
demo application on:

http://struts.application-servers.com/DemoServeurDeNews

A very useful example to show how complex client side user interfaces can be 
built up (using JSP and Javascript) and linked to Struts components.

The only I problem is I don't know how compatible this is gonna be with Netscape,
Mozilla and the other browsers.

Jon.

This isn't a struts issue. Struts doesn't even deal with client side
browser stuff. Just do all your validation server side if you want and
then you don't have to worry about the browser type.

The question will take place when introducing javascript code in your application.

Struts doesn't deal with client side browser stuff, your right,
but for those of us building complex user interface components
in a browser we have to use something.  Making the same
functionality available in desktop applications to web appliactions
is a big problem and we need a way of solving this.  HTML
doesn't do the job on its own and so we need a scripting language
like Javascript.  The point I was trying to make was if the Javascript
used is compatible with Netscape (and possibly Mozilla) as well as
IE which is what I was viewing it on.

Alternatively another method of complex client side user interfaces is
to use flash remoting and link it through to Struts

http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-01-2003/jw-0117-flash.html?

I think this has already been done but can't seem to find the link.

Jon.

All of your standard javascript should work fine in all browsers. I've
only run into some complications when doing stuff with layers and
DHTML. You should be able to mimic the desktop applications pretty
well just using standard javascript principles. Maybe you have more
complex business requirements in mind, though, and that I can't really
gather from just an e-mail.

If you want feel free to e-mail me off-list what you need to
accomplish with javascript to duplicate your desktop apps.
