Leon did post it to our website for download a while back
(www.opticode.co.za), but I fear that with the recent Webmacro changes (e.g.
FastWriter) it won't work as is any more. I will ask Leon to post our newest
version tomorrow (plus an example or two) so that you can all have a look.
By the way, this stuff is already used in 2 commercial applications with
great success!
We are working on a lot of stuff to make the web app developer's job easier,
and this REAL separation between CONTENT, LAYOUT and FORMATTING is only one
of several ideas we have. Leon today got JPython integration going - WHAT
THE HELL?! you may well ask - I'll tell you about it in a separate post...
Frank (and Leon)
