Re: RPG CGI for PHP programmers

Yep, ExtJS isn't a small drop in the bucket, which I have been learning on
and off the past year. The biggest thing is to develop patterns and
document them. For example, there are a number of ways to put all of your
ExtJS definitions together. I am working on an RPGUI app right now
(RPG+ExtJS) that will show some of those patterns and hopefully I will be
able to get some critique of it once I post it on sourceforge.net

At least you are still in RPG with RPGsp.

Aaron,

I think it's a great idea. Using a different approach, such as what you
are advocating, would be another option to help us who are web challenged
move forward. More options for learning offer more opportunities for
success.

FWIW - My two cents is that last year we spent a good month working with
the Valence trial. Richard and his team gave us great support and I really
liked it's potential, but EXTJS and web 2.0 was difficult and
unfortunately a hurdle that my programmers (and I) couldn't get our
heads around. As a result we opted for RPGsp to help us move forward. Back
then we knew little regarding HTML, Javascript and CSS and even less
about EXTJS and web 2.0.

Thanks!
