Web Forms: new output

In version 3.5.15 of ITP/OnLine Server an alternative was introduced for the old, table-oriented HTML output of the ITP/OnLine forms. This alternative has the following features:

• The output is XHTML-compliant.
• The output is div-oriented, allowing for a more flexible layout through CSS.
• The underlying JavaScript is open and documented, and defines an extensibility model. This means, customization of ITP/OnLine through JavaScript can be done in a well-defined an maintainable way.
• The underlying JavaScript capitalizes on the power of jQuery (http://www.jquery.com).

This chapter describes the new output, the underlying JavaScript library and the way in which the extensibility model can be used. This description is currently limited to the web forms produced by ITP/OnLine, i.e. the output produced by the file interact.xsl.

Note

The alternative div-oriented output does not work using Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.
