[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] [OPEN-ILS-DEV] browser client update for 2014-04-11

I agree with Rogan, the previous one was more attractive but this is more functional. I think the paging controls, the sorting, and the selecting/unselecting are all very intuitive.

The only thing I see so far that will throw off users is that when I highlight a bit of text in preparation for copying it, the UI highlights the entire row and marks it selected - when I ctrl-c, it does copy just the text I highlighted, but the visual cues are confusing.

Should we be able to log in via mobile devices? Or is the certificate issue preventing this at the moment?

Well, I've finally installed a valid cert on my test server, so it's possible to log in once again (now with secure WebSockets, yay). After login, go to Patron Search and perform a search. The search results are using the new grid.

user=admin 
pass=demo123 

Note that in the patron search grid, only some columns are sortable (appear as links), because those are the only columns that are sortable in the server API for this particular interface. In these cases, where we want to have access to lots of columns, but only some of them are sortable on the server, we still have the option of performing local (visible data) sorting. Blending local and server-side sorting could get confusing, though, so we'll need to carefully consider how to handle that.

Thanks, Bill! 

I'm excited to see the grid design and looking forward to seeing how the status bar will work.

Hi All, 

This is mainly just a "what's going on" update, though I do discuss some issues we're facing with un-trusted SSL certificates for those that are curious:
