JSSB JavaScript Shared Browser II
Current Java SB determines URL changes by inspecting URL on Master in a “tight loop” (currently once every half a second one invokes code to inspect web page state including URL)
New JSSB uses same strategy but adds capabilities by inspecting further document properties such as scrolling position, forms and links
- Should be much better in Internet Explorer 5 but current version does more or less work
- Current version is Netscape ONLY as Tango1.4 is Netscape 4.5 only and DOM/Security very different in version 4 browsers
- Uses heuristics to guess “next” foil and thumbnails ...
Note WebWisdom strategy is natural whenever one can control pages as when made from templates (as in WebWisdomDB) and we will link JS SB to database backend
