Preferably by using XML-RPC. It just stroke me that using XML-RPC as the communication layer between any client tool and Zope would be the best way to separate client-logic from Zope-logic.
Is that a good idee?
It sounds good to me but then I am a Zope newbie. Certainly it would be better to have a generic "automatic" interface to the Zope database, than one for Java, one for (perhaps) a Windows app, etc etc.
Are there any free JavaScript implementations of a XML-RPC client out there?
If by JavaScript you mean Java (Javascript is the somewhat crappy language that can be embedded in HTML - Java is the cool language from which Applets are made) then I am sure the answer is yes - XML is well supported on Java.
