I've had a look at RevIgniter, and it does look very powerful, and similar to the famous PHP framework CodeIgniter, which I am already familiar with. Unfortunately, I abandoned CodeIgniter a while ago, in favour of other frameworks that better suit the technologies I use. I have been using the SlimPHP framework a lot, which makes it snap-easy to create a RESTful interface on the server. Doing some searching, I found Andre Garzia's RevSpark framework, which is very similar to SlimPHP - they are both based on a third Ruby framework called 'Sinatra' - and seems to follow the same approach: http://www.andregarzia.com/page/revspark I've been 'playing' with RevSpark, and I think this is *almost* exactly what I need. I want to drop the author a line, but am waiting until I become a bit more proficient with LiveCode, so I'll at least sound as if I know what I'm talking about... ;-) Once again, many, many thanks for all the pointers. Please, keep those suggestions coming! There is so much for me to learn! :-) Kind regards to all, -- Igor Couto Sydney, Australia _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
