I had an interesting HTML use of Leo recently. I had to design a web site, and was using Yahoo's yui toolkit, and Symfony as the PHP framework.
I had 4 quadrants on the screen, each doing a different demonstration. I decided to use Ajax, to give a better response for the page, and a more visually appealing look & feel. So, 4 quadrants, each with multiple Ajax interfaces. For each quadrant, that's a minimum of 3 files with various field names (assume 5-6 fields/quadrant minimum). So, you can see that I'm already up to about 60 variables in 12 files. Using the standard Eclipse tools, I was quickly overwhelmed with trying to keep all these straight, and getting it working. Then I remembered Leo. I imported the project into Leo. Then, I created nodes for each of the quadrants. I make nodes of each of the pertinent sections for each Ajax system (the HTML to build the Ajax fields, the PHP to service the Ajax requests, and the PHP to process the form response ). All 3 nodes where in a single location, without all the other cruft around the system. The demo was completed in record time. That was the ah-ha moment for me, and I realized the power and depth of Leo. HTH Mike On Tue, Nov 11, 2008 at 6:09 AM, Edward K. Ream <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > On Nov 11, 1:31 am, "Ville M.
