All, My client is interested in looking at using the OpenLaszlo UI library in the app. that I''m developing. My understanding of OL is that it is an abstraction layer that sits in front of Flash and DHTML. I see that there is a OL Rails plugin that was released back in Jan. I''m looking for feedback from developers who have implemented OL in a Rails app. and any positive or negative experiences they''ve had. In particular: * consistency of features across browsers? * any Flash dependencies - can I reliably implement this in a target client assuming only DHTML capabilities?

OK so OL looks like a custom-implemented Javascript library akin to script.aculo.us. Sound right?

Not at all. OpenLazlo is a complete XML / Javascript language used to create Flash files (compiles .swf binaries). It''s extremely powerful and decently easy to learn. www.openlazlo.org is the best place to start.

My understanding is that when their Project Legals releases in December, you will be able to deploy to DHTML as a target instead of Flash. Is that correct?

Yes, that is correct. In fact, they have two comparison apps for you to try out, one in Flash, the other in pure DHTML, and they are remarkably similar. You should check it out if you haven''t already.

Hi folks, Just a typo: the website is http://www.openlaszlo.org/, and the name is OpenLaszlo (with an S) :-) Júlio Jason Roelofs wrote:> Not at all.
