Overview
Mercury-UI™ for JSP
A collection of server-side JavaBeans and tools that assist you in creating sophisticated web user-interfaces, with a strong emphasis on fluid (resizable) layouts, browser compatibility, site performance and programmability.
Navigation
Navigation is a crucial part of the sites you develop. Mercury-UI includes two advanced controls for creating an intuitive navigational structure:
JSP Development Features
Each control has flexible programming options:
Fully programmable objects with the ability to run in any JSP-compatible environment.
Load state from a binary file generated by the Studio applications.
Cache the DHTML on the client.
Cross-Browser Support
Browsers are automatically detected and DHTML is rendered accordingly. See individual control details for more on cross-browser support.
Client-side and Server-side
Mercury-UI for JSP includes both client-side and server-side technologies, so you can make the best design decision for your project.
If a project is best suited for client-side development, then use the included Studio design-time applications for creating and compiling .js files.
If a project is best suited for server-side programming, then use the included run-time JavaBean.
Studio Apps
Included in the license are the Studio applications. These stand-alone design programs can be used to visually prototype the object, save state files, or even compile a control's DHTML into external .js files that can be used on any web server or HTML project.
The Studio programs can also assist by generating server-side Java code that can be pasted into your JSP page.
Tremendous Value
No other solution provides this much versatility in one package. What's more, Mercury-UI uses developer-based licensing which includes royalty-free distribution of the JavaBean controls.
Each developer who owns a license can re-use Mercury-UI again and again, without any additional costs!
