Hi Salvador, Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you like it :) > I'm wondering about the structure of the underlying PHP application.

The application logic (Model) is still located on the server-side, but is accessible directly from the View (via Javascript) - rather than the Model producing the View. I am yet to fully document the QWAD Framework design to assist developers, but that should be coming soon. As far as the PHP in QWAD goes, it plays two roles: 1) Provide simple server connectivity with the client (handled through JPSpan) 2) Assist developers by managing Javascript dependancies and providing a simple loading mechanism Currently the dependancies PHP code is very bloated and requires PHP5 - which it appears most hosts are not yet supporting. I am about to re-write the code to be much smaller and be PHP4 compatible. Have a good New Year! Cheers, Chris |
