Summer's End 2009

Perspectives session material was due in last Friday. Now I can get back to building new stuff. I still haven't finished the display panel memory. It is a small annoyance, but a general client side context persistence mechanism will come handy over and over.

There also remains some fleshing out of the metadata implementation. In particular being able to set an M2k edit pattern and have a Regex generated and applied to the input would be sweet. I'd also like to get any existing pattern matching or required validators to be automatically tied in...December is rapidly approaching, we'll see what we can sneak in. The performance exception logging and user preference extensions are a must, so I guess I better start on those directly.

I just put in a replacement for the dorky alerts with which I was displaying ?3 and ?5 help. Now we have a nifty m2kShowMessage(hmtlMsg) js function with which it is easy to compose an HTML display and pop it up using an in-line div that won't set off the pop-up blockers.
