Hi James,
Sounds like he has already quoted $1M+ to the client and wants some kind
of super hard, active-x or client-side java class solution to justify
the cost.
It really is very simple with JavaScript. Even if you can't program the
preamble, you can just regex (pattern match) the barcode input to detect
it and submit/process.
No need for complexification. Which is one of the worst habits of
developers.

Sure. If it's about what you see as the limitations of Javascript
maybe let us know what you see those as being? We've put a fair bit
of effort into making our app respond (form submission, page updates,
form reset, even audible feedback) with no further action from the
operator besides the scan taking place.
Happy to share what we've learned through that process.

Thanks James,
Again, I am well aware it is no different from a keyboard.
Noone's really reading the primary gotcha of my post so I'll just
close this one now.
Cheers people
Aaron
