If someone could make the fidomsg.wcx a little more robust I would be
happy..
-> Hector -
->
-> Do you think it would be possible to incorporate creating of netmail
-> messages via the WEB interface as a core piece of functionality to
-> Wildcat!?
-> If not I understand, but what I had visioned would be the current
-> template checks the mailarea type. If it's a netmail area, the
-> template would display two text boxes (each next to the to/from user
-> names) in the form.
-> Since the ansi side looks for fidomsg.wcx to run when creating netmail,
-> I would think there could be a variable that represents whether
-> html-fidomsg.wcx existed. If so, then the template would also show
-> a button with like "..." as the caption that spawns a popup window
-> which runs the html-fidomsg.wcx hook.
-> The html-fidomsg.wcx hook would be a custom module that we'd need to
-> write ourselves that parses or reads a nodelist data file and gives
-> the user the option to select a nodelist entry to send to/from.
-> When the selections are made, the data is set in the calling form and
-> the popup window is closed.
-> Since the fields for the node numbers are text boxes, the user could
-> also just type in a FTN-address in 3D/4D/5D format that the create
-> message code parses and sets in the message header.
-> If you want me to modify the code for the hooks and submit it to you,
-> I'll be welcome to in order to try to push this into the core package. I
-> know you want to keep things consistent regardless of connectivity type,
-> and I think it's a step in that direction. I also realize that this is
-> a very LOW LOW item on the list of things to change/add to WINSERVER
-> which is why I'm willing to put it together and submit it to ya if that
-> is what works the best for you.
-> Thoughts?
-> Chris
