Sample form-variables for Traincasters interface
Use this HTML document as a sample for generating test data for the
real-time transfer of data from MIT's Training Needs Assessment web
interface and the Traincasters system. Eventually, MIT's system will generate
form variables similar to those displayed below by looking up data from
its database and doing calculations that determine which courses a person
is required to take. Then, the system will do a redirect
from an HTML form to the Traincasters site, using GET or POST to send the
variables.
For testing,
- Make a copy of this HTML document on your own site
- Modify the "action" URL specified in the form definition to point to
your own URL on your own site.
(Currently, it points to a URL on a test server that
displays the form variables and some certificate information. The
sample document uses method=POST but the script on the test server
supports both GET and POST.)
- From your own Netscape web browser (where you have previously gotten
an MIT-issued user certificate), go to your modified URL.
- Fill in appropriate values for the fields below, or use the sample values
shown.
- Click the "Send data" button.
