we have zope (dtml/script/zsql-method) that do specific calls that spits out results via xmlrpc.
on the browser side, we have all these ajax libs - openrico, dojo, mochikits, azax, DataRequestor, jsolait, tim morgan's mini, etc
we just need to connect the dots. the ajax lib + our java functions/etc will call dtml/script/sql-method via xmlrpc(builtin) or jasonrpc(with the jsonrpc product) and page will be updated inline(?)
not much voodo involved. everything is there already.
a simple demo is at http://myzope.kedai.com.my/blogs/kedai/demo/; a script python that just spits out DateTime().pCommon(), and the other, a script python tah calls html file randomly. replace that with anythin we want.
zope rox! but i guess we all know that
Thanks, this was a nice briefing. I like the demos, and as a single additional comment I would add that for json-rpc I myself too made some (although more crude looking) simple demos, that do not have a live server but that are installable: so that you can start playing with it on your own server and modify any client or server scripts, if you install the demo + jsonserver2 into Zope as two individual products.
