That screen shot piques my curiosity. May I ask how its made; the tools you used?

Tools? I normally begin with Dreamweaver to define an HTML template and JavaScript, which I FTP to the IFS. Then I write an RPG program to handle browser and database I/O. I use a home-grown set of service programs for handling browser I/O, somewhat comparable to CGIDEV2.

The left-most tab in the screen-shot corresponds to the "entity" being maintained, which in this case is a "person" record. Each tab to the right pertains to the primary entity, but is controlled by a different *PGM, for the sake of modularity. I typically link each *PGM via a shared data structure. In the case of the user defined attributes tab, the data structure is:


D udaLink DS Export Qualified
D subject 10A
D entity 10A

The subject in this case is the constant "PERSON". The entity is the person ID (key to the person record). So the utility that maintains user defined fields can link user defined attributes to a specific entity.
