Hello.<br><br>I am thinking of using seaside to develop a web based application, but I really do not know how seaside can satisfy my needs.<br>I read the book at the seaside site and all is well with the development in the seaside-way.<br>
<br>Although, I have the following questions:<br>I would have components like a grid and graphs in my application. Is this possible?<br></blockquote></div><div><br>You could write components that create grids and graphs. <br>
If you can do it in html/javascript, you can write a component in seaside to create a <br>
reusable component to do the same. <br> <br></div><div class="im"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204);padding-left:1ex">I see that seaside includes Scriptaculous and jQuery, so could I use something like this: <a href="http://trirand.com/blog/jqgrid/jqgrid.html" target="_blank">http://trirand.com/blog/jqgrid/jqgrid.html</a>? This component (or any other like this) exists or, if not, how difficult is to build it?<br>
</blockquote></div><div><br>There are none included w/ Seaside itself although someone might have written something like that. I'm not aware of it though.<br>The difficulty isnt that great, you are taking the html and javascript that would be used and write code that given a certain set<br>
of inputs would create the appropriate output. Its basically the same as how it would be in any other language/framework except that seaside components are <br>stateful so in some ways, once you know what you are doing, its easier.<br>

<br><div>Another example. Searching the web I found this thing called ZK: <a href="http://www.zkoss.org/zkdemo/userguide/" target="_blank">http://www.zkoss.org/zkdemo/userguide/</a>. There are at seaside grids, graphics and windows as shown in this demo?<br>
</div></blockquote></div><div><br>I don't understand this last question. If you are asking if seaside has built in componenets similiar to that then the answer is no.<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, that was my question.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks.</div><div>Maxi</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div class="gmail_quote"><div><br>My general statement would be, yes all of this is possible, the learning curve might be a little high for someone starting out with Seaside.<br>
