Carie,
Palm applications (including your ProxiWeb browser) need to be expressly
written for the Symbol barcode reader. Unless the application purposely
added the functionality to accept Symbol barcode read input, then the
application will not read data from the reader.
With that said, Ben discussed before the idea of writng a hack that would
allow you to do this. That however is way beyond my Palm development
skills... :)

I've successfully left the scanner on, but now I've got the problem of
trying to
input the results (barcode) into a form on a web page, using the ProxiWeb
browser. Any ideas on how to get the browser to recognize the input of the
barcode?
Thanks,
Carie

...? You have to explictly turn it off. Turn it on and don't turn it off;
it'll stay on.
This is generally a bad idea; the scanner and the decoder take quite a bit
of power, and I think you'll find yourself draining batteries quicker than
you'd like.

Ben Flaumenhaft.
