  Dear ISIS users,

  I whish to inform you that. J-ISIS is still in heavy development and code refactoring. Please find below a summary of some of the recent developments:

  1)J-ISIS latest versions are using the DJ-Native Swing JWebBrowser library to offer a Web Browser through J-ISIS. It was quite successful for providing a  Web Browser for most popular platforms. But the Java integration has always produced from time to time some strange behavior (like losing the focus on the other components after clicking on the Browser window, overlapping of windows, etc.) , most probably because of mixing heavyweight and lightweight components and also because of our incompetency in solving the issues. 
  Thus, recently we changed for the JavaFX 2.2 WebWiew. The integration with Java is fine and we have got rid of all the DJ-Native Swing problems. However, we have lost some features which were given for free with the native browsers such as downloading resources in different formats and opening them in the right application. The embedded browser component is based on WebKit, an open source web browser engine. It supports Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), JavaScript, Document Object Model (DOM), and HTML5.





  2) The Jetty Web Server has been embedded in J-ISIS, thus when you start J-ISIS, you have a database server (Database is a Berkeley DB) as well as a Web server. Records are displayed through the Web browser and can access other Web resources with the embedded Jetty Web server.




  3) Web-JISIS prototype is futher developed and tested to provide a more robust release. The menu bar is now stable, changing PFT when displaying records is now working as well as changing the worksheet in data entry.





  4) And many small Improvements such as:



  Indexing Techniques

  The field content is checked to see if it is html. In case it is recognized as HTML, the text part is extracted and used for indexing. 


  Import/Export

  Better wizard screens and support for other formats such as Dublin Core

  Search

  Better highlighting of the seach terms in the results

  Worksheet Editor

  Drag and Drop of the worksheet fields to change their order

  PFT Editor

  The output produced by a format with a specific record is now working properly, thanks to the new JavaFX Webview Browser.


  PFTs

  Images stored in blob fields can be used in PFTs.

  Images

  Images are now well displayed through the new JavaFX Webview Browser which is independent from the platform. Images can be stored directly in a record and/or as a Web resource url.

  Web Resources

  A Web resource is anything that is addressable over the Web with a url. They can be addressed through a relative url if the resource is on the server machine or by an absolute url if the Web resource is on a remote machine. 


  Digital Library feature

  Improved speed for large document and better user feedback about the process.



  The tests I have done until now proves that the new JavaFX embedded browser component fits very well in J-ISIS and avoid the many annoying GUI  problems I have seen in the previous releases.




  I wish to provide this new version ASAP so that it can be tested on different platforms. Hopefully, it will be available before end of next month.




  With my best wishes,




  Jean-Claude
