The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
I am curious also.
Some years ago I used Joe Pluta's WDSC Step by Step book to create
a simple Invoice Entry form and would like to maybe do something at my
current POE . . . maybe combine with some EGL . . . ?

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Is HATS still a viable solution?
I've been tasked with running our shipping system, currently a barcode scanner with a 5250 application, as a web page that could be easily run on an android scanning device. I'm having trouble weeding through the different solutions and the real advantages and disadvantages to the different ways to get there. What I recall looking very attractive, some years ago, was IBM HATS (host access tranformation service). I remember it having some sort of per user licensing. I've also seen IBM products fade away from support (ie. Infoprint Server) and I haven't heard a lot of marketing behind HATS. Is this still an attractive product to accomplish a screen scrape with some possible minor modifications to the display? Are there better solutions now for accomplishing this without requiring a lot of web design knowledge?
