Dave, I'm sorry, but my own communication skills here have gotten the better of me. What I actually mean by "subset of Transcript for basic business logic" is the code which is written in the IDE which is translated to the J in AJAX, namely Javascript (and HTML). And the communication layer I'm referring to is the generated AJAX communicating with Andre's server. So, the only Transcript to Javascript (and HTML and CSS) converter I am talking about, is converting a single card to a web page. The idea being there would of course be custom properties of some of the controls. For instance there would need to be a 'uPercentageWidth' property for fields, which if true would allow fields to be stretched with the browser window. There's probably many more like that. This could, IMO, create a quick little app framework, but probably not a business-class type product. -Chipp _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
