Hello all;
I've read some of the dynapi-dev archives about dynamic loading of external
data and I think my JSRS JavaScript Remote Scripting library might be well
suited to be used with DynAPI. Not having used DynAPI, I can't immediately
give you an example of them working together, but I expect an implementation
would be trivial to those familiar with both.
JSRS is a library which uses hidden layers or iframes to make remote calls
to functions on a server page. It's known to work with IE4, IE5 on Windows,
Linux, Mac and NS4, NS6, Mozilla on Windows and Linux. While originally
written to work with IIS and ASP, a recent IBM Developerworks article by
Erik Hatcher
(http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/wa-resc/?dwzone=web) provides
a Java servlet which extends the server-side to Apache/Tomcat. It should be
fairly easy to get PHP, Perl CGI, JSP etc server implementations going as
well.
It's in production use in Canada, the US, Australia, the Netherlands,
Austria and likely other places as well.
JSRS is open and free, so if anyone wants to build upon it or pull it
apart to merge it with DynAPI, I'd be glad to help.
You can find JSRS and other Remote Scripting info at
