I guess it's splitting hairs, but I don't see MVC as a development style, but rather a *problem* style. The problem itself is often MVC whether or not you choose to develop code that deals with that in a useful way. It's like saying "sailing in an aquatic way", if you follow my meaning. :-) > > And *that* is the big problem with tools like PHP, ASP, JSP, and Mason: > > all four of these co-mingle the View and the Controller > > [snip] > > Right so you are saying what I said in a more detailed way.

I still see the problem itself as being MVC, and the tools in question don't do well at recognizing & isolating the three tasks; I still think that to say "develop in an MVC way" puts things backwards. But this is all hair-splitting, so nevermind :-) -- Chris Devers -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
