We have developed a Java Applet that uses WebDAV to manage resources via a browser. It currently works well using IE and Netscape on Windows, but may not work on some Mac clients - we'd be interested in feedback on what does/doesn't work. The Applet is currently on the sharemation WebDAV supported site www.sharemation.com. Try it by first going to http://www.screenplan.com/eplan2.html mydocsonline has been tested, but it does not seem to support the LOCK command which is used by the Applet. Thanks to the WebDAV mailing list for providing assistance on some of the technical issues. Any WebDAV mailing list members/developers who want to use this Applet (either for testing or practical use!) please let us know - we'll provide a trial version. Regards, JC Samson --------------------------- JAVA WEBDAV APPLET FOR RESOURCE PLANNING RELEASED 24 October 2000 A Java Applet has been developed that can be used to manage shared resources using a World Wide Web browser. It uses XML (eXtensible Markup Language) to manage resource information - and the recently released WebDAV HTTP extensions to allow updating of resource information. It has uses throughout most organisations, including : *Staff allocation on projects/tasks *Room booking *Desk or office booking *Equipment booking *Car parking space booking Many organisations still rely on hand-written charts or paper notebooks to keep track of vital resources such as meeting rooms or car parking spaces. The Java Applet allows staff to view and update resource allocation from their desk or even remotely, using a Java-compatible device.
