Programming IE Browser Applications for the CK30 Screen
Since the CK30 screen is small, you may want to use a few of the
programming tips in this table to more efficiently use your
screen space.
To Do This: Use These Attributes in Your Tags:
Remove scroll bars <body scroll=no> </body>
Remove top and left margins <body topmargin=0 leftmargin=0> </body>
Use a small font <basefont face=”Lucida Console” size=1>…</font>
Remove spacing between cells in a
table
<table class=MenuItem cellspacing=0
cellpadding=0>…</table>
Set the font size for entries in a table <tbody style=”font:7pt Lucida Console>…</tbody>
Tip: You can also use this attribute with theader and
tfooter tags.
Create a shorter text edit box that
stretches across the screen
<input type=”text” name=”barcode1” tabindex=”1”
style=”font-size:6pt; width:160px”/>
Control the order of controls the tab
key jumps to
<input type=”text” name=”barcode1” tabindex=”1”/>
Converting a Trakker Antares Application to a CK30 Application
If you have an existing Trakker Antares application that you
would like to run on the CK30, you can use the Antares
Migration Resource Kit to convert it. The Antares Migration
Resource Kit is a set of libraries and tools that you use to convert
your existing Trakker Antares C applications into C++
applications for use on the CK30.
The CK30 does not support all Trakker Antares PSK functions.
You may need to rewrite parts of your application when
converting it for use on the CK30. See the resource kit for a list
of functions that are not supported.
