Healthcare Apps for a Digital Age

While most of us are anchored firmly in the digital world, the landscape of hospitals and other healthcare organizations seems rather primitive, often choosing to drown its inhabitants in a sea of paperwork rather than offering them a versatile and adaptive digital interface that provides them with all the information when and where they need it.

How to retrive the value of the data from the form that we created in my previous post. The submit button that we created in our previous does nothing. In this, we will add some functionality to it.

It is a good idea to create a separate folder for all your scripts. I have created a folder named “js” and created a file called “custom.js” in that.   For the popup, you need create a separate “div” tag. Place the code shown above the closing “</body>” tag . < div data-role ="popup" id ="submitPopup" data-inline ="true" data-transition ="slideup" data-position-to ="origin" >     < span id =...
