[Qwadframework-discussion] Using qwad-fw from within Apache Cocoon

[Corin M. <cor...@in...>]

Hi there,

I'm interested in using the qwad-fw from within Apache Cocoon 
(specifically Cocoon's advanced cform functionality.)   I think it would 
be an excellent addition to the widget set provided by Cocoon.    To do 
this, I would need to remove dependencies on PHP, and replace them with 
similar functionality as provided by Cocoon.   Are you able to give some 
background on the best way to remove the PHP dependancy?  The loader.php 
seems fairly straight-forward, is there anything else lurking that I 
should know about?

Thanks,

Corin

[Qwadframework-discussion] QWAD Chat released BETA

[Chris (Q. Technologies) <chr...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I have just released a new application - QWAD Chat - as BETA. It uses
the QWAD Framework and JPSpan to provide a completely
Javascript/CSS/HTML chat application supporting multiple rooms with
tabs etc.

Some of its features include:
 - Fully Javascript/PHP driven - user doesn't have to download Java
 - Doesn't use page refreshing
 - Supports "SAFE" HTML to add colours, font sizes etc.
 - Supports images through <img> tag and straight URL detection
 - Fully re-skinnable using CSS

All feedback would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Chris

Hi,

Just a quick note letting everyone know that I've just re-written the
dependancy loader to support PHP4 and to be much neater.

It can be downloaded at:

Hi Salvador,

Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you like it :)

You're right the QWAD Framework uses a different approach to MVC. 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
