| I have a question concerning field exiting, on numerical fields the user
field exits to right justify the number. In the browser, tabbing doesn't do
this, I added this code to make the "+" work as a field exit, changed the
HATS default file. In the KBS.js file, located under Web Content\common\,
did the following (in red bold):
change approximately line 116 to:
(Line 115) [CODE_ENTER, 0, 1, 0, '[fldext]' ],
(Line 116) [CODE_PLUS, 0, 0, 0, '[fldext]' ],
This works however the screen reloads upon exiting the field! This is slow
and unacceptable to the user; has anyone figured out an acceptable
workaround?
TIA
John

| John, Have you tried with the latest hats APAR, the 5.0.4.1 interim
fix on the HAT service download site?
What build of HATS are you using
| |
|
| I'm at 5.0.4, are you saying that right adjusting without screen refreshing
has been fixed?

I cannot find this interim fix at the download site (it appears on the list
but no link leads to the download).

I was having problems finding it but found it now:
https://www14.software.ibm.com/weba...w&cp=ISO-8859-1
Scroll to the bottom of the page (under 5.0.4)

I read the readme and it doesn't mention anything about field exit, so
what gives?

|
| IBM has told me that this is working as designed. However, web users are not
used to using the field exit key so I'm hoping this gets fixed.

It is working as designed. You must remember that the Field Exit key is
a 5250 AID key, which means that when pressed on a real terminal
keyboard the data was submitted to the host. HATS is emulating this
function.
That is why I was curious when I saw what appeared to be a comment that
5.0.4 in some way fixed it so that it did not submit to the host. That
would have meant that someone found a way to emulate that function for
that specific field in JavaScript.

| What I really want is right justification when you tab out of a field. If I
right justify manually, no problems, I don't need to use field exit. I'm
wondering if a property can be added to the field input to do this or maybe
some Java code to right justify a field on exit? Almost all AS/400 shops use
field exit so I'm surprised that IBM has no work around for this.
