The "final" version of Super Express for Datek is now available at: stockclub.com Super Express for Datek is a third-party HTML interface to Datek's express server (orders7.datek.com) that you can load onto and run from your hard drive. Super Express for Datek: - Allows you to queue-up up to 5 orders at one time, on a single compact page. You can then execute any order on the page with a single click. - Does not require that you enter your password for each trade. - Allows your order form to remain in the browser at all times. Responses from the Datek server are displayed either in a lower frame or a separate browser window. - Pre-checks your order for common mistakes (missing fields, etc.) before sending it to Datek's server. Super Express for Datek may not be suitable for all traders. It was designed to speed order entry for day-traders, and others who want to make split-second trading decisions and do not want anything to slow down their order entry. Although you can run Super Express for Datek from the URL shown above, I suggest that you download it to your hard disk. See the help page for use and downloading instructions. Please direct any comments or suggestions to the Datek Web Pages thread, at: Subject 19534 Changes made in this version: 1. The password has been moved to the bottom of the order page. No more annoying popup. No more forgetting to enter the password. The asterisks are a constant reminder that the order page is "loaded" and ready to fire. 2. I turned on the frame border, so that you can resize the frames. The borderless frames look cool, but are non-functional in this application. 3. Renamed the files with a .htm extension rather than .html. Was causing trouble for some Windows users. 3. Not a change per se, but a change in the help file: if you prefer not to use frames, you can just load se_order.htm rather than se.htm. The Datek pages will then come up in a separate browser window. Some people prefer this because they don't have to scroll the frame to see their portfolio, etc. (NOTE: if you decide to try this after trying the frames version, be sure to CLOSE the frames version first! Otherwise, the Datek pages will still come up in the bottom frame of the frames version!)
