The largest issue about going towards a desktop solution with java are that designing the ui really are a pain if you dont use something like mattise, it's even worse that hacking html.. I'll agree on the javaFX
Granted, HTML frameworks have come a long way in the past 15 years, but even with Wicket, building GUIs is still easier with a dedicated graphics toolkit. Even SWT is better than HTML/CSS. I worked a lot with AWT/Swing in the past and now SWT/JFace/Eclipse RCP. For anything more than trivial GUIs, either one is easier than HTML. No matter how good Wicket and AJAX get, you're still fighting the underlying design principal of HTML - it was designed for rendering documents, not building GUIs. my 2c, Chris -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Chris Merrill | Web Performance, Inc.
