Draft Document for Review October 18, 2004 5486LPAccess.fm
Features
iSeries Access for Web includes the following features:
It runs on the iSeries server, not the desktop:
– Works with any desktop browser, NetScape, Internet Explorer, and more
– Downloads HTML pages to desktop browser
It runs on any desktop with a browser:
– Linux, Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, AIX, Network Stations, OS/2
– Uses standard HTTP or HTTPS (for SSL) ports
iSeries Access for Web now contains its own 5250 interface and no longer
uses the WebSphere Host Publisher XML Gateway when starting 5250
sessions. This new 5250 interface contains many additional capabilities, for
example:
– Workstation ID (device ID) can be configured and provides wildcard
support similar to the PC5250 emulator in iSeries Access for Windows.
– Two switchable views, Web view and traditional view, are each fully
customizable.
– Function keys and Page Up and Page Down are supported (works with
Internet Explorer 5, and later browsers, and requires JavaScript).
iSeries DB2 UDB access
GUI access to upload and download data (for example into an Excel
spreadsheet). Many database functions, such as insert, delete, update, and
query, are provided.
Database functions have been enhanced. Results of an SQL statement can
now be in PDF format. Users can configure functions such as page size,
orientation, margins, table header and footer, column heading, table style,
and alignment, or upload or download Extensible Markup Language (XML),
so that data can be interchanged with other XML-enabled applications.
iSeries Access for Web provides access to iSeries resources:
– Use iSeries printers and printer output (plus PDF)
– Work with jobs, send and receive messages, run non-interactive CL
commands (with Prompt support)
– A simple interface for working with information in the IFS, including
download and view capabilities
Workflow support
E-mail work output anywhere (from database request, CL commands, or file
system), or store in your’s or other’s personal folders.
