Interfacing to the Internet

You can use the World Wide Web (Internet) to access your JADE applications, using the HTML thin client mode. Web browsers, such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer, provide a convenient client interface to JADE data on distributed servers.

You cannot run Unicode Web applications.

Both the JADE server node workstation and the workstation that is running the JADE application must be running under a Windows operating system that supports services when accessing your JADE applications from the Internet.

When using the HTML thin client mode to access a JADE application from the Internet, your JADE application and Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) 2.0 must reside on the same workstation.

The JADE HTML thin client interface to the Internet provides the following features.

For details, see "Implementing Web Applications", in Chapter 1 of the JADE Web Application Guide. See also "Firewall for the JADE Internet Environment", in Chapter 2 of the JADE Installation and Configuration Guide.
