Hi Folks
I would like start the HTTP in my server. I have 200 different aplicattions Databases. Is it necessary change all aplication manually ?
Or are there any aplication Fron end to do it automatically ? that is, it converts for format WEB ?
Subject: No simple solution
The standard applications which ship with Notes will convert to the web ok… though they might not look all that great, they should work. Mail, etc should work fine and look decent. Other apps that your company or others have written for Notes may or may not work as-is, depending on what is in the individual application. Some things you can do in the Notes client just plain don’t work on the web. For instance @dialogbox or @prompt do not work in web browsers. Other @functions will work (such as @dbcolumn or @dblookup).
Basically, if you want to convert existing Notes Client applications for web use in a corporate environment, they need to be re-engineered for the web to maintain a professional look and usability.
A good example of this is when a combobox (or other keyword type field) has the box checked in its design to refresh all fields in order to update the options in other keyword fields or recalculate other fields values. This works fine in Notes and it DOES work in a browser, but it causes a page refresh every time you change the field option selected. Very annoying on the modern web. A well-engineered re-write of your application will do away with this using standard AJAX techniques.
In addition, layouts tend tend to be done differently in web applications than in Notes client applications. Many client applications still use framesets, for instance, but framesets are taboo in modern web design.
In short, if you want to provide simple web access for out of the box databases from IBM, you should be ok on functionality just by allowing access via the http web server. If you have custom built apps, you should do a LOT of testing on the web access, and probably need to have an experienced developer look them over and re-design them for browser access.
