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.

I built [a] prototype which is really just a very thin layer
(well, not thin enough for Nathan!) over the top of tn5250j.
Moving tn5250j to the server seems like a good idea. That way, each workstation doesn't have to run its own set of applets and associated JVM.
The design also provides a way to run JavaScript on the browser to extend the interface. My main concern is the type and amount of HTML that web5250 generates.
Hence the suggestion to write a JavaScript client, and work with smaller data streams. Niels suggested a JSON formatted streams. That sounds fine to me.
I'm still curious how tn5250j works as a server? I've always thought of it as a single user client. You've come up with a way for multiple browsers to connect to a single servlet? And manage multiple concurrent connections?
Anyway it sounds like some of your TODOs could be solved by a JavaScript client - better support for function keys, for example.
Nathan.
