Anyone have experience integrating Javascript Survey libraries with 4D?
Creating and maintaining survey forms in 4D is tedious and time consuming. There are various Javascript libraries available which can generate survey pages on the fly and return results in JSON or XML. They even come with visual editors to create the survey. It seems simple enough, conceptually, to use something like this in a web area inside of 4D.
The use case here is telephone agents using 4D asking someone some screening questions. There may be data in 4D which will inform what survey questions are asked and the domain of possible answers and the result data needs to be stored in 4D.
BTW, I know very little about Javascript and only slightly more about 4D web areas.
I've looked at survey.js and surveyjs.org. It seems pretty full featured.
Anyone done this? Any recommendations? Issues to avoid?
Thanks,
Tom Benedict
