Re: [Tn5250j-general] EDTWRD
Hi Kenneth, Mocha and Powerterm Pro handle EDTWRD only for display AND only when the field contains something other than blanks or zeroes. For the rest, it is just a plain input field. The cursor doesn't even skip the formatting separtors. This how a date field [EDTWRD(' - -')] looks like with TN5250j when it' initially displayed in NON-GUI mode. __ __ And this with the other two: __ After filling in something (01012005): TN5250j:01 01 2005 Others: 01012005 and pressing ENTER, it's displayed like this: TN5250j:01-01-2005 Others: 01-01-2005 Now, when I start typing a new date, say 1212, it goes like this: TN5250j:12-12-2005 Others: 12121-2005 At this point, with TN5250j I can use the TAB-key to move to the next field. With the others I have to continue typing the rest of the date and use FIELD-EXIT to delete the rest. So TN5250j is running circles around the others! The only thing left to do is to display the separator characters of the EDTWRD when the field is empty.

Re: [Tn5250j-general] Hotspot issue with http and https
Richard Found the problem with this. I can send you the fix if you would like for testing. Regards Kenneth Quoting Kenneth Pouncey [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Richard Richard Houston wrote: Hey all, Just wanted to let you know we have been testing 0.5.8 Alpha2 all day and all seams good with the exception of one issue. It seem that the http and https based hotspots are broken. :0 What is happening? I tested on a windows machine and it worked. If I single or double click on a https link nothing happens. The XSystem in the bottom left corner flashes quickly bit nothing happens after that. hummm that is weird Now if I click on a http link nothing happens but if I double click on the http link it is like I hit the F3 key an it exits the screen. Do you have the option for double click sends enter turned on? Very strange. Anything I can do to help debug? This is on Linux and JDK 1.4.2_06 There should be a debug message that is sent when a link is clicked. I will have to go in and look again though. The message should read something like : Sending to external browser: http://xx Kenneth Thanks! Regards, +--+ | Richard Houston .^. | | R.L.H.

Re: [Tn5250j-general] EDTWRD
Hi Kenneth, Aha! Maybe that's why the other emulators don't honour the mask. Anyway, I like it better your way. Thanks for checking it out. Until now, the latest version you sent me runs perfectly. Greetings, -Marc On 13-06-2005 11:33, Kenneth Pouncey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Marc OK I just went and created a test file for this to check in both CA and tn5250j before we create a whole bunch of dumps for nothing. Here is the way I created it. AWNOAC 12 0B 13 20EDTWRD('. - - ') A EDTMSK('') This shows up as blanks without the mask characters as you say if the field is blanks. This happens in both tn5250j and Client Access. Looking in the data stream the mask characters are not being sent so there is no way for me to figure them out without it telling me. To make the field separaters show up all the time the field will have to be something besides blank or change the edtwrd to use a 0 (zero) like below: AWNOAC 12 0B 13 20EDTWRD(' 0. - - ') A EDTMSK('') The above produces the following if the field is blank or not initialized: '.00-000-000' Another example here with the 0 at the beginning: AWNOAC 12 0B 13 20EDTWRD('0 . - - ') A EDTMSK('') The above produces the following if the field is blank or not initialized: ' 000.00-000-000' Hope that helps but can not do anything about it and also works the same as Client Access because the controller itself is not sending back the separators.
