  • DB Backups
  • More Angular. Going to try to connect to the server and get Funding Request data.
  • Nope, got distracted. It turns out that the browser DOM keyboard model is not ASCII. If you listen for keyboard events (as some of the charting apps do), then it’s impossible to determine what key has been clicked by just looking at the event.charCode in the keypress event. So instead, my first Angular app is going to be a webapp that allows you to enter in a set of keyboard characters and have the javascript determine what the keycode maps to. This varies by browser and edition. Did someone not tell early web developers that there was this thing called an ASCII table? Here’s the angular directive

  • Deployed new FR, FA, RA
  • DB Backups

    • RecordsetPanel – started
    • FundingRequestPanel
  • Sent a new version over to Bill for deployment. The commenting is finding bugs.

  • Found out that Tabs are Bad Control Characters in JSON. It turns out that I was explicitly allowing tabs and CRs in the regex. No more. Also, the reason that the tabs were there at all (because they should have moved between fields) was because the lines that had them were pasted. Ya learn something every day.
  • FRs will for now be done in Word documents though. The system is too buggy.
  • Added indications about loading and saving to the top of the page.
  • Trap tabs in FR – done
  • Work on “Are you sure?” dialog – done
  • Ran many tests on loading/saving

  • Make the list for approval a global – done
  • Add a “required” config for items. Grids that gave an empty required field remain yellow
  • Make “add’ trigger a save. If there is no project name, add a dialog that forces that – done.
  • Make the lab dropdown loads from a config file – done.

  • DB Backups
  • Task number query is messing with taskID query – removed taskID query. Junit test seems OK
  • add multiple role checks during login. – Added to java code. Passed Junit.
  • Scrollbars is not working. Test with other browsers. Tested and all seems to work. added reset-min.css to see what gives.

  • DB Backups
  • Deployed FR, FA, RA
  • Need to add Project Number to comments – done
  • Need to format HTML – done. That’s a wierd one, too. If you’re using a div, then setContent() getContent() works like a charm. But since I’m using IE8 compatable textarea, I have to convert CR to <br/>. using JavaScript’s replace() function to do it all by regex.
  • Need to add scrollbar to FundingRequestPanel – done
  • Remove “Testbed” – done
