Any idea if the URL can specify URL params as well (I assume so...just have not really used them much)??
This is a data entry application running via a mobile site. In the middle of filling in a form, the user may need to scan a bar/QR code and the value behind the code must be placed in a form prompt (text input). They will need to scan multiple codes. It may not have to be that direct (i.e. perhaps they do all their scanning and all values are stored in a list - then the user could copy/cut that list and paste into the web form prompt). As I said....the bridge (getting data from scanner to web app) is the part I am struggling with - just looking for options and brainstorming Your mention of QRs opening URLs made me wonder if I could have the web app collect each scan one at a time and store temporarily. The idea being each QR passes the numeric value I would be after as a URL param - then repeat until all scanning done. I should mention that the things to be scanned may already exist and only have barcodes and not QR (although in another area of my work that QR idea might just work). Anywooo...there is some more clarity (I hope) Thanks again for the feedback Dave > > Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software > 1-202-527-9569 > http://www.figleaf.com/ > http://training.figleaf.com/ > > Fig Leaf Software is a Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) on > GSA Schedule, and provides the highest caliber vendor-authorized > instruction at our training centers, online, or onsite. > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:358308 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
