Re: [WebMacro-user] Deploying an applet on the server-side

[Marcello H <mar...@gm...>]

Espen,

You have to ask yourself a couple of things and answer them too :-)

Is the sudden change of the 'project' something you should program?
If yes, then analise the new whishes etc. and perhaps then, based on all th=
e
new information, choose a technique.

If a technique is chosen, then try a POC (proof of concept) to see if
the technique
does what you want.

The technique you choose, will depend on:
your skills, if there is a emaillist of a forum that answers quickly
enough, if there is potential in the technique to survive the next
year (or longer), if there is a quickstart or faq to get you started
etc.

To give you a hint in what webmacro does:
It will probably be used from within a servlet. (The servlet runs on a
hosted server, presenting dynamic webpages.) WM is basicaly a template
rendering engine, so it will handle the way that the HTML is rendered,
before sending it to the browser of the user.

And in my humble opinion, webmacro is alive and kicking :-)

Hope that this will kick you in the right direction!

Bye.

Marcel
