VMs: Re: Numbered transcription
Hi everyone,
I've put up a new test-page showing my idea of how JavaScript can make
proofing much less painstaking.
http://www.voynich.info/phpwiki/vmsform.html
Each word index is "live": clicking on it fills out the form appropriately,
and moves the input focus to the box you'd want to edit. To save you typing
your name every time you use the form, JavaScript can also remember your
name in a cookie (which is much nicer) - although that feature doesn't
currently appear to work (and I have no idea why). :-9
I also tried to keep my usage of JavaScript back to version 1.0 of the
language. Under Win95, IE6, NS4.08, NS4.76, & NS6.0 (my main compatibility
set) all seem to work OK with it.
I also tried to construct the page so that it will still function OK
without JavaScript... though what browser would have CSS but not
JavaScript? :-9
Comments? :-)
Cheers, .....Nick Pelling.....
