Product Line
TAC Vista
Environment
- Vista Webstation 5.x.x
- Graphic Editor TGML 1.x.x
Cause
Due to the differences in Vista Workstation and Vista Webstation being viewed through internet browsers some TGML javascript functions will not function, function as expected, or cause your TGML graphic page to be unusable resulting in a Java error message.
Resolution
To make TGML graphic pages compatible with Vista Webstation remove the following functions:
- getDate
- getYear
- getMonth
- getDay
- getHour
- getMinute
- getSecond
To make TGML graphic pages compatible with Vista Webstation adjust the unexpected behavior of the following functions:
- setTimer - this function cannot be used in the OnDocumentLoad event
- getStatus - this function will always return a value of 2
- invoke - this function can only be used on links, not bindings.
