Hi Brian, When you click on the category buttons, the different lab buttons associated with the category should appear, and when you click on the lab button, an alert should pop up that tells you what number should be used as an argument to jx. Eric replied in an earlier post in this thread, "I don't think the current release will allow javascript running in the html view to call J." So the issue is not whether JavaScript runs (it clearly does), but that it does not have a channel to send information back to the J interpreter. That is why my alerts can tell you what you need to do, but they can not get J to do it for you. Interestingly enough there are some events that can trigger J code (the swipes to go back and forth on the hview come to mind).
So the next step would be to provide a conduit where events in JavaScript trigger J code. Until that bridge is built, we can sit in the land of J and create Javascript text and run it, but once we are in JavaScript land we can not send anything back to J (other than finger swipes). I think Eric would have the best understanding of the mechanisms, so just take my explanation as hand waving at this point.
