Most powerful examples of javascript/jquery with IOL technique
We are beginning to refine our QuickBase application, which until this point has relied solely on native-QB UI. Using the IOL technique I now have some very basic jQuery code applied to some UI eleme...
Each pastie has a link back to the original forum question and in many cases has a link to a live demo. All of the code has been tested at the time it was used but over time there may have been an underlying change in QuickBase which breaks the demo. If the demo does not work as advertised there is probably a small tweak needed.
But the IOL technique is old now. Other techniques have been developed including BOL (Branding OnLoad), EOH (Error On Load), OEH (On Error HTML), and SW (Service Workers). And we have a new technology being developed for QuickBase application using ELM (http://elm-lang.org/) which will take user interface to an unprecedented level. Also, word is that Haskell is coming to Empower 2018.
IOL and EOL (variant of IOL) can only inject script onto pages where a raw field can be displayed (new, view, edit, report, grid edit).
BOL can inject script into every page in the application.
SW can inject script into every page in the account. It is also called QuickBase god mode because it is so powerful it can do just about anything including make QuickBase work offline, push notifications as well as act as a full netowrk proxy implemented in JavaScript.
OEH is a way to write native formulas that can use arbitrary script to calculate and display any value without referencing a code page.
ELM is an front end technology that is incredibly powerful and would be used to make user interfaces using code pages. ELM is written in Haskell and beats the pants off of React and Angular. QuickBase is flirting with using React and Angular so I am just sort of rubbing their nose in a better technology,
