RE: RPG is Dead? Say it aint so!

From: Joe Pluta

Well, the HTML side I might agree with simply because the nature of any
generated code is such that at some point you will eventually know enough
to
add your own stuff. It won't be because the EGL generated code is broken,
but just that you want to add some spiffy JavaScript that you downloaded
from the web.

In fact, let's go a little further here. With PHP or CGIDEV or even my
beloved JSP, you MUST be pretty good at HTML just to use the technology.
With EGL, you can start out without any knowledge of HTML, and yet be fully
productive creating good looking web pages. All you need to know is the
VERY high-level EGL syntax (where the single line "get customers" loads an
array of records from the database).

Politics and pricing aside, for RPG programmers EGL is truly the easiest way
to get started in web application programming.
