As Eric says then you are obviously a bit early for the JHS stuff but answer to this question is that your guy or anyone using J701 can always set up a server at home and it will work the same as if it was remote. > > The HTML interface will work.

As Eric says again you are a bit early but it would be interesting to hear what your guy would do with code similar to the one mentioned here below from Eric. >>> beta.

Your >>> app will >>> probably be a single file similar to file.ijs that creates a locale >>> with the >>> app name. The file contains event handlers and the code to send back a >>> proper html page as the result. It sure is interesting to hear how this develops and I am sure many of us are thinking about similar things for the future J701 and it will be helpful for the future of J701 to know how this comes along. At the moment I am working with grid in J6 and I look forward to seeing where grid will fit into J7 if it will be only in JGTK or if it will also be in JHS as I hope. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
