Unless I'm not understanding it right, ZKoss looks like it requires some web server configuration in order to run. Flex doesn't, which is nice for people like me who work in server environments they can't control. But it looks like awesome tech! Am I right about it needing server side configuration?

Since we are already a Java shop, on the server side, it seemed logical to use a Java based framework on the client-side. The thing I really like about ZK or ZKoss is that it has equivalent components to Flex. In fact, it actually has more components than Flex. It implements an approach that I really like of separating the UI into appearance and behavior - much like the Spark components of Flex. Well, not exactly, but sort of. :) Here's what I mean. For each UI object, it has a client side (widget) and server side (component). I won't go into further detail, but it gives you a nice separation of concerns that you can avail yourself of. This feature also greatly insulates the rendered pages from x-browser compatibility issues. Check it out for yourself at their site (zkoss.org).
