Re: Mainframe programming vs the Web

[Len Rugen]

Yes Sonny, back in the old days, we scanned CICS screens backwards, 
changing invalid fields red, setting the valid fields to askip and 
putting the cursor in invalid fields.  When the edit was done, the 
cursor would be in the first field the user needed to fix.  I hate web 
pages that say "Correct errors in red"  If the error is a blank, you 
can't find it.  With our technique, you knew which fields were invalid 
because those are the only ones tab would find.
