16.3.2 LANSA for the Web
LANSA for the Web has two main application types:
- Webevent Functions: These are special functions that generate HTML or XML for DISPLAY, REQUEST, and POP_UP commands. They do not allow 16.1.1 Unicode Field Types to be displayed and edited. However, RDMLX Webevent functions do allow other RDMLX field types to be displayed, unlike 16.3.1 RDML Functions.
- 16.1.5 Web Application Modules (WAMs): These are LANSA's solution for building applications that deliver their User Interface in a form of XML, typically via a web browser. WAMs do allow the handling of 16.1.1 Unicode Field Types.
If your application consists mainly of Webevent Functions, the recommended approach is to extend your application with WAMs where Unicode data needs to be displayed. Refer to WAM and Webevent Interoperability in the for recommended techniques.
If your application consists mainly of WAMs, there are no special instructions, just enhance your application as desired.
