Hello Dave,

I normally do not respond, being that I represent a Vendor, but you asked for "Thoughts on how to knock this out fairly quickly from nothing-set-up-on-the-system to production web app(s)?" Allow me to provide a suggestion. BCD offers WebSmart PHP as the only rapid application development tool generating non propriety, open source, PHP code in the System i marketplace. RPG developers can very quickly and successfully create web programs, accessing System i and non System i data. WebSmart PHP makes it easy to call existing System i externalized programs and pass parms back and forth and many other robust features, like CSS. Another product that will allow you to get up and running very quickly is BCD's Nexus Portal. This free web portal is hosted on your System i web server. It provides security administration, content control and web menuing as just a few of the built in features. If you are interested, please let me know, we offer free trials and web demos.

But, it now appears like the choices, for me, for now, are Net.Data and PHP. Again, for now, my needs are fairly simple... picture the old Green Screen menus that allow you to move from main menu to subordinate with selections per topic area on each. That's what I need for now as a Web app with those selections calling REXX, perhaps some CL/RPG and DB2 Query Manager queries, Commands like WRKSPLF where the spool files don't belong to the user logged on but are accesses, under the covers, by generic userid with the privlidges with the spoolfile displayed on the Web (perhaps the hardest to do).... this sort of thing. No fancy stuff... yes using CSS would be nice but not necessary. Thoughts on how to knock this out fairly quickly from nothing-set-up-on-the-system to production web app(s)?
