I have, in my development area, a proof-of-concept merging the features of Mozile with Callisto, e.g. the result of your site's XSLT transformation can be edited in-situ. It shows a lot of promise, in that the client can become an active party to the editing process, rather than the server throwing gobs of HTML forms to the browser, and recieving gobs of updates in batch. Instead, the browser could send small packets of updates to the server, either as RDF (since Mozilla's RDF APIs rock) or as XML or HTTP POST updates. > Michael Nachbaur, author of CallistoCMS, did a lot of work with XUL > based interfaces, maybe he can give an update there? So far my XUL work has focused around client/server administration GUIs, since my projects at work have drifted away from Callisto for the time being. :-( I do have plans to get back to Callisto, but I don't have any time in the forseeable future to get to it. My goal is, when I eventually get back to Callisto, to make any text generated from your source XML - whether its the main body content, or the titles of other pages listed in a side- or nav-bar - could be edited without having to hop around your site. This is because the client could submit content updates to various target URLs asyncronously, as long as it knew what URL / XML ID a given DOM node in the browser was associated with. - -- Michael A.
