2708 - Progress
2709 -
270901 - Installed Google Chrome for remote access service needed to
270902 - collaborate with Morris on SDS jave. 120310 1802, ref SDS 5 NC5K
270904 - ..
270905 - Morris described Google Chrome as a subset of Netscape.
270907 - ..
270908 - Morris recently reported that Microsoft changed Internet Explorer web
270909 - browser so it no longer necessarily finds the specified line based on
270910 - anchors in html code and places the line at the top of the browser
270911 - window for immediate orientation. Instead, it places the target line
270912 - anywhere within the current screen, and expects people to find the
270913 - line based on content.
270915 - ..
270916 - Morris indicated IE made this change in order to increase the speed
270917 - opening files on the Internet. He seemed to indicate Microsoft
270918 - believes nobody cares about precision access, because nobody knows
270919 - how to support this feature of Knowledge Management.
270921 - ..
270922 - This new protocal reflects experience over the past few years where
270923 - customers no longer have precision access to the record, cited in a
270924 - letter to Microsoft on 070815 1139, ref SDS 3 EK5I, and referencing
270925 - prior work with Microsoft on 061202 0126. ref SDS 2 LP3K
270927 - ..
270928 - Case study on problems using IE for precision access is reported on
270929 - 110629 0912. ref SDS 4 SR9J
270931 - ..
270932 - Precision access is a component of Knowledeg Space explained in NWO.
270933 - ref OF 17 PX6J
270935 - ..
270936 - Decided to try using it for precision access, since IE has elimianted
270937 - this feature implementing anchors.
270939 - ..
270940 - Since IE is a common technology most people use, can assuage failure
270941 - to support precision access by citing line numbers. However, for
270942 - efficient access chrome.exe may work better.

270950 - Follow up ref SDS 2 I75O. ref SDS 1 QX6L.
270952 - ..
270953 - Tried switching browser to open SDS files on the Internet from IE to
270954 - Googlechrome. This changes work on 061202 0126. ref SDS 2 I75O
270956 - ..
270957 - Problem with chrome.exe is that IE interprets a file on the local
270958 - machine based on partition, but chrome.exe requires entering file:///
270960 - ..
270961 - Line 630, ref OF 1 L95F, -label ocfwb3 in \01\14\009030 about 80 lines below
270962 -
270963 - -if @222 = 122 ins_text!C:\sd\wl!
270964 - -if @222 = 122 ins_text!file:///C:\sd\wl!
270965 -
270966 - Changed command for identifying file location for chrome.exe to
270967 - open SDS html files on local browser.
270969 - ..
270970 - Wound up having to change this stuff back to IE, because
270971 - Windows 7 installs Google chrome.exe in different folders for
270972 - 32 and 64 bit.
270973 -

270977 - Line 970, ref OF 1 XG3J, -label aeol in \01\14\009030
270978 -
270979 - -if @77 = 1 ins_text !set SIE="%systemdrive%\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"!
270980 -
270981 - -if @77 = 1 ins_text !set SIE="%systemdrive%\Users\Rod Welch\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"!
270982 -
270983 - Changed from calling IE to chrome.exe; for some reason
270984 - googlechrome installed in an odd directory, rather than Windows
270985 - program files.
270987 - ..
270988 - Wound up having to change this stuff back to IE, because
270989 - Windows 7 installs Google chrome.exe in different folders for
270990 - 32 and 64 bit.
270992 - ..
270993 - Opening SDS records on both the Internet and the local computer seems
270994 - to have precision access, which is no longer available in IE. Wonder
270995 - how long it will take chrome.exe to degrade to the level of IE?
