Hello,
In working on code for portal pages, particularly when working with AJAX calls and callback functions, the only way (I can see) to test out changes is to edit the page, edit the script component, then save out of both, all of which adds at least 30 seconds to what you could do in a console with one keystroke. So is there a better, faster way to test code for portal pages?
Thank you,
Greg
Thank you, Manooj, I will post this to the ideas section.

Hi Greg -
There is no alternative for this at the moment but we are looking at making some portal enhancements and is in our roadmap. It would be nice you could add this to our Ideas Section (community.progress.com/.../rollbase) which would help us consolidate requests such as this and others.
Regards.

Thanks for bringing this up. Portal/ HTML/JS (both script component & serverside formulas) editor related developer UX & productivity is an area we will focus on beginning the latter half of 2016.
This should include
1) Better editors ( fonts, syntax highlighting,editor responsiveness ) , meaningful content assist
2) Better syntax for AJAX API, looping constructs
3) easier access to script-editing mode from pages ( your post )
Awesome, thank you!!
As we approach the end of the year (2016) I'm keen to know where this is at in the releases/roadmap.
Hello [mention:a6c9696e06b342788a72e98457099d22:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] ,
The portal changes look very promising, however, are there any possible updates on the enhancements you mentioned?
Cheers.
