Google Web Toolkit

[BigBison]

This sounds :shock: holy-crap cool:

Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is a Java software development framework that makes writing AJAX applications like Google Maps and Gmail easy for developers who don't speak browser quirks as a second language. Writing dynamic web applications today is a tedious and error-prone process; you spend 90% of your time working around subtle incompatabilities between web browsers and platforms, and JavaScript's lack of modularity makes sharing, testing, and reusing AJAX components difficult and fragile.

GWT lets you avoid many of these headaches while offering your users the same dynamic, standards-compliant experience. You write your front end in the Java programming language, and the GWT compiler converts your Java classes to browser-compliant JavaScript and HTML.

I think googles got the right idea on this one. If I ever need to use AJAX, I will look into this first.

this is so cool. Thanks for sharing.

Of course, you have to buy into the idea that AJAX is a good thing first, and then you have to give up the notion that coding for yourself is actually fun :lol:

I suppose this is worth a little look-see :)
