Re: Web apps on the AS/400

First,  Thank you for your library.

I personally like this "Quick" solution.   Java maybe for long term.  I
have the CGIDEV2 and I can put it into my shop with NO training of a new
language.

Can I move my app to Linux or something else?   Well,  Have I EVER
considered that when writing RPG the last 20 years?  No.

Just MY opinion

-------------

For those who don't already know it, the CGIDEV2 library,
available for free at the Easy400 site, is an RPGIV CGI
toolkit that uses "externally described HTML."

That is, all the HTML to be sent to the browser is stored in
either a source physical file or an IFS stream file.  The HTML
is organized into named sections (analagous to a DDS record
format) and the HTML records support variable substitution at
run time (like DDS fields).

At run time, values for the substitution variables are set with
with UpdHTMLVar subprocedure.  Sections of HTML are written
to the browser with the WrtSection subprocedure.

Examples and tutorials are at the Easy400 site
