Terrific! -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Eric Iverson Sent: Monday, January 21, 2013 16:21 To: Programming forum Subject: [Jprogramming] JHS update available
A significant update is available for JHS. JHS was first released before HTML5 was generally available. JHS now has DOCTYPE for HTML5. Previously it had DOCTYPE for HTML4 transitional. This probably has no effect for modern browsers, may break some old browsers, but is the right choice for the future and possibly avoids browser compatibility bugs. Before HTML5, the use of target="_blank" in either HTML or JAVASCRIPT to open a page in a new tab was strongly deprecated and JHS conformed to this unfortunate advice. This meant that to open a link, such as an ijs editor, in a new page you had to click the link while holding down ctrl+shift. HTML5 dedeprecates (?) _blank and with ubiquitous tab support is used in JHS to provide a more desktop application like experience. New tabs are opened as 'expected' and it is easy to adjust your tabs and to drag a tab away from the browser frame to create new windows as desired. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
