Thorbjørn,

"The demo server is not answering now (run out of handles/connections) so I cannot verify."

I haven't done any verification of the connections since I moved everything over to the JS12 so I may need to "tweak" a few things. The Demo user and the environment haven't been set up on the JS12 either so I probably had enough bad userid/password combinations so that the connection has been varied off.

A simple little reference to a project and now I have a few more hours of work added to the list :-)

The sign-on screen is 23K of HTML. That just won't cut it. An HTML stream that's 20 times bigger than its corresponding 5250 stream will eat your server's CPU and clog your bandwidth. So my suggestion would be to have the server output something more like a 5250 data stream, and have a light-weight JavaScript client convert it to DOM elements at runtime.

The demo server is not answering now (run out of handles/connections) so I cannot verify. I am pretty certain, however, that a suitable use of CSS will help quite a bit.

I strongly applaud your attitude though - it is very rarely that a web developer seems to think twice about sending a 20Kb file :)
