Thanks for the tips liwenzhi- very helpful.
I will say that the OpenLaszlo Explorer is really very nice. It would
have been even better if it included examples of all the functionality
that I need- but of course how are the developers supposed to
anticipate that?
I'm developing with a different AJAX toolkit for the moment (less
power but faster learning curve), but tentatively plan on openlaszlo
for v2 of the site...
Cheers,
Brian

bcrounse,hi!
1. the openlaszlo demo using "cool" skin just want to catch us eyes and
make some visual effect,but in real project, they(openlaslzo studio)or we never use such
luxurious stuff.
see that:

2. although,flash is not fit for everyone's taste,but,now, it is the only
run time we could choose when using openlaszlo, and if you wanna to copy and
paste flash test, you can use inputtext control.
3.many devolper say the lzx language is a little big "strange" and "alien",but
this is just the feature of openlaszlo,different from the traditional programming model, after all the
language want to be a agile develoment language.Also,you can find some infomation about your taget of
"make the appearance of a widget
conditional on the value of a user cookie" at:
http://www.openlaszlo.org/lps/docs/guide/cookies.html
we have done the same task as your's getting http session infomation by using
"dataset",it's src is a ".jsp" file,so,this is not a big problem.
some opinions of yours I agree, the platform's wide population and adoption
need offical effort,because people are new to OL need to confirm more
relaibility and feasibility of it.So,more specific technical articles and some
consulting guides are strongly desired.That's just the shortage of
Openlaszlo,also the support of developoment community.
with regards
