grey-fields-data-entry-enabled

[jason.p.pickering]

Using J2ME client version 138, server version 2.7 revision 6091.

Section forms have been designed and certain data elements have been "greyed". On the section forms on the web, the fields are disabled. On the mobile client, the grey fields are enabled and will accept data.

It would be expected that the grey fields would be either no present or disabled on the J2ME client.

Hi Jason,

Are you using the http://ennrims.com/dhis server? I just checked the
forms there and it seem to me that you are using the custom form. This
is where the problem comes from. The J2ME application (and mobile
web-based application) use the DataSet and all DataElement that it
contains as the resource to construct the data entry form. Meanwhile the
custom form with all of its information about grey-field is stored as
HTML code. The mobile phone cannot read and extract the grey-field from
this very long HTML code.

As a result, you don't have grey-fields on mobile J2ME.

I have both custom forms as well as section forms.

For the section forms, the grey fields have been set using grey-field
management.

I realize that the J2ME cannot do anything about the custom forms, but
was suprised that the grey fields from the section forms was not used.
Maybe this is more of a blueprint than a bug?

See attached screen shot.

Regards,
Jason
