Hi,
I like to rewrite my desktop application as cgi web app. (+/- 8 function specific windows)
The desktop app has a menu bar and can load multi windows at the same time.
For example: Your are editing an order in screen one, during that edit, you take a phonecall and search for details in an other order in screen 2
I’m thinking about what is the best way to handle many pages (Screens / windows) in a web app.
How do you handle multiple pages and where to put the navigiation:
-
Do you load a new page for every single screen?
if so… do you switch between your screens by a dashboard or menu?
are you using a static header with a menubar, toolbar or button to your dashboard? -
Do you load a main page with some navigation buttons and show/hide some inside placed containercontrols for filling the page specific content.
-
Does your app have a static secuence for showing the pages (like a wizard).
Screen1 opens screen 2, screen2 opens screen3 … -
Do you load each page in a tabstrip, so you can switch between them
-
else…
What is the best way to do?
Best regards,
Marc
