It as a matter of tasta, and advance in gwt, and the borders of your application:) At firs try to make same finctional widgets, and go on. > > > 3) WRT #2: How would you recommend implementing user login and > registration functionality using GWT+JSON? > a) Using GWT as an AJAX widget to spice up a php/django form > b) Implement a GWT app specific to registering / login users, > leaving other website functionality to other GWT apps > c) Implement user functionality using GWT into a single app > containing the entire website functionality. > I think (a.) will good for you, and will be fun. -- Best Regards Tóth Imre --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
