…there is a cool vector base diagramming library on
the Open-jACOB website too. You can build your browser based workflow
editor with that javascript tool.

nice

Hi,

AjaxTK is greate. But I need more than ‘only’ a GUI lib.

I’m using jACOB. A GUI Designer for Web 2.0 Applications.
One important thing for me is the integrated DB-Designer.

You can create a DB WebApplication with DragDrop

very short flash demo:

Lack of documentation for AjaxTK is a real pain. It’s really hard to reccommend (or even use) a toolkit like this with no doc. It’s a shame because AjaxTK looks well concieved and well executed.

Zimbra: Not just a pretty face.

We’ve been reading what folks are saying about Zimbra. In the forums, news, blogs, and even Slashdot. The biggest mis-conception about Zimbra is that we’re just a flashy AJAX client for reading email. While that’s true that we’ve got a…

Who is using Zimbra?

I want to see if anyone is using it. I have spent the last hour or so reading various blogs and other tech sites and I haven’t found any people that have posted a review of the program.
I am talking with the admin for the hosting company I use, …

Orbeon PresentationServer (OPS) 3.0, currently in beta, provides an Ajax-enabled XForms implementation, and it is open source! Check it out here and at ObjectWeb. This Blog entry explains the rationale behind Ajax XForms. But I think the online examples speak for themselves, including XForms Controls, Repeating Elements, Calculator, Translate This, and Flickr Spell. All the examples are here.

For now at least, you need to download the full Zimbra package and pull the AjaxTK files out of it. Some discussion of this in the Zimbra Forums.

Does Zimbra work on XP Home?

At this time, the Zimbra server will only run on Linux, as it relies on at least one server component not available for Windows: the postfix email server.

The client machines that access it can certainly use XP Home, however.

Yeah, Bindows looks cool … BUT!

$695 per developer!
$199 per app, per cpu!!!

These guys are NUTS!

Sorry, Bindows will never become popular out side the big enterprise at that rate.

That Bindows does look good. But theres just one thing that I can see wrong with it, and that’s the Buy button. Zimbra is Open Source.

Great to hear of more software implementing XForms...but I haven't got a clue how something can be "largely unimplemented" :) I suppose you could mean that of the full standard only a percentage of it has been implemented, but you'd be wrong -- formsPlayer, X-Smiles and the Novell XForms Browser all implemented the full standard a few years ago. So perhaps you mean that there aren't many implementations -- but again, in addition to the three full implementations I have just mentioned, there is the PureEdge one (recently bought by IBM), there's Mozilla, and there are numerous JavaScript/AJAX hybrids (Chiba, FormsFaces, Orbeon, to name just the ones I can think of now). (More info on most of these is at http://www.xforms-wiki.com/) Of course if you mean "undeployed" then that is certainly true, but in the great scheme of things this is a new technology, and the interest in AJAX shows that there is a need for tools and software that make building apps easier. Exciting times for rich client software though! And don't get me wrong...great article. Mark Birbeck CEO x-port.net Ltd. w: http://www.formsPlayer.com/ b: http://internet-apps.blogspot.com/
