Hi Everyone

Just a question, do anyone know where can I find documentation on the java-script framework of WebFOCUS. The one which handles the xml-request etc.
Anyone used other java-script frameworks like dojo, Wavemaker etc with WebFOCUS.

Please take this as an open discussion. Write about your ideas and experience.

I've never seen any documentation on any of the internal JS files. I suspect that you will not find any either. If IB did document their JS API, then they would be obligated to support the same features from release to release. By treating it as a black box, then they will be able to change at will to support the latest features.

As far as external JS frameworks, I use Prototype. It is clean and easy to develop complex tasks, without all the built in themes and screen manipulation components that can make frameworks heavy.

I've been toying with Jquery.

Very small footprint and I know MS Visual Studio 2009 is supposed to have native support for it.

I'm defnitly more of an educated "hack" on JavaScript and haven't looked at other frameworks.

I've also used the JQuery javascript library to great effect.

I was looking for a simple way to round the corners of my HTML DIV boxes using either CSS and/or javasctipt without being tied to rounded-corner images. I tried 6 or 7 different pre-built scripts out on the net but was sold on JScript because of it's simplicity and plug-in capablity.

Knowlendge of javascript is useful, but not always necesary, especially if the plug-in designer provides good documentation.

And there seems to be a plug-in or 2 available for anything you might want to accomplish with javascript. There is a gradient plug-in that works well with the rounded-corners plug-in and again, easy to use, that have given my web-pages a cool, professional look.

The JQuery website contains lots of documentation and help.

While it is free, they do ask for donations.

Cheers,

David
