HTML Report with no JavaScript
« on: November 05, 2011, 02:53:54 am »
I need to produce our model as an HTML output, but the client has JavaScript disabled on their browsers. The current templates are very heavily reliant on js, Is there any way or template to produce an HTML report with no javascript to get it working?

thanks John

We have a model with some 3,000 elements in total (processes, activities, notes) with tons of cross-package dependencies, but have given up exporting it to HTML and putting it up on the intranet for people to look at, it takes up to two minutes for the browser on the more sluggish PCs to parse the TOC xml file using javascript. In addition, the browser goes blank and "hangs" while doing this - no indication that it is actually working is given :-/

Until HTML export becomes a feasible alternative, we are looking into distributing EA Light so that people can look at the processes straight from the DB repository.

Sadly we do not have the option of distributing EA lite.  I dont understand why Sparx have made the EA output so js dependent.  surely it only the browser which needs it.  Is anyone from Sparx able to give a clue as to how we might be able to do it.

In addition, is there any way of stopping it producing HTML pages for Boundaries?  the option to stop it producing links for Text and Notes does not seem to work as these get produced.  It means that it is nealry impossible to produce a  web site with nice graphics without them all being active links - obscuring the actual links you do want.
