Of course since this is a zope2 newsgroup, I would mention also that this solution does not work at the moment with Zope2. To port this in an effective I would wait until Zope versions 2.10 or even 2.11 to get into production. Porting this to 2.8 or 2.9 would be a bit pointless imo, but maybe I am wrong since I don't know the WSGI middleware in such details. Zc.resourcelibrary (with the zope3 tal engine needed) and the twisted publisher, once they are backported to z2, might even put things to their place so well that this starts working without any extra effort. I would separate the question of putting javascript and css resources into the page from the rest of the AJAX saga. This is quite an independent issue. I am not aware of any Z2-only solution because most of the work that I need to do with this is on Plone. Both Plone and Archetypes have good, settled, well-tested solutions to solve the resource issue. I would expect that once the above mentioned backporting is done the existing Plone solutions would move more down to the Z3 level and utilize mechanisms like zc.resourcelibrary or WSGI. To have this in production code is a question of say, few years: a bit less, more optimistically, but right now is a no-option for production code. Now I would turn to the AJAX question in general. For the client-server communication I can suggest to use jsonserver: this is backported to Zope2 by myself and at the moment we are even doing a full merge of the zope2 and zope3 products version, so it's guaranteed the code you make for zope2 with it will run seamlessly on zope3 without a need for a change. Jsonserver offers JSON-RPC which is a protocol similar to XML-RPC but with quite some nice extras. The homepage at the moment is http://www.zope.org/Members/jsonserver2 . When the z2-z3 merge is done, I will also make the examples tutorial available in a better form, too. I have to add that a lot of other frameworks use the JSON format in itself, without the RPC part, but the RPC part is such a benefitial extra that these javascript libs would also start offering the JSON-RPC option once the server and client libraries get a wider availability. The other, higher level framework that I think, when finished, will be a very potent solution, is AZAX. At the moment it is much work in progress. A usable version will be expected very soon. There is a development info site on http://azax.ree.hu with not-so-useful information but as our time allows this will be extended, so you may be interested to tune in. And of course there are quite a few other higher level, vell working solutions to choose from, some of which the previous posters have already mentioned. Pick your own choice, there is no "the" framework at the moment. In any case, expect to work with a set of framework most proper for your purposes. -- Balazs Ree _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - [email protected] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
