You could transform it via XSLT prior to browser though... so, end to end it works for anyone...
Sorry, that's what I meant. The portal server selects a stylesheet (provided with the gadget) to customize the output for IE, netscape or WAP.
What are YOUR thoughts using a Zope backed architecture in place of something like NPS or iPlanet portal server etc.???
Don't know anything about iPlanet, but I think this would be pretty straightforward with Zope. NPS does a lot more however, it allows the administrator to customize what the user can see/select. There's a hierarchy of settings/authority/views etc that is tightly integrated with NDS (eDirectory). You could model this on LDAP.
what does your gadget for NPS interface with? or is it a generic interface to anything?
It's a daily fortune, like the Unix fortune program. I wrote it as a sample Jython servlet to see if I can get it published in Novell's AppNotes "Creating NPS gadgets using Jython"
