RE: Who's doing Web work on iSeries? (was: ASP on AS/400 Apache)

I HTML doesn't support subfiles and neither does CGI. So if you
interpreted my statements to mean that we had circumvented this issue,
that was not accurate.

What I was implying was that using CGI and HTML end uses have a
different expectation level than what is created by using the current
Webfacing tool.
If a pop up window is displayed, containing a subfile, and you scroll
that subfile... argh!

That's all.
