That is our experience.

The reason I started this thread was because we had a website developed using 
Java and Flash which used SQL to get the 4D data and TomCat to serve it. It was 
developed outside 4D by a non-4D programmer and needed virtually no 4D code 
changes (apart from a special method to handle login access and a couple of 
others).
This worked very well - he got on with his web work and I got on with mine 
(on-going development of the client/server version).

The web system died (apparently thanks to Java dropping ODBC support) when we 
moved from 4D v13.5 to v15, and we now have to rewrite it (the web system) and 
our new web developer has to decide “using what?" to do it.

I idea of this thread was to find out from other 4D people what system(s) they 
use to develop and deploy their website.
There have been many replies but virtually none that don’t require a 4D 
programmer to be involved to a large extent.

It is looking like the world of web deployment using 4D data is not so diverse 
after all.
Cheers, Keith
