1.) WYSIWYG editors in browsers are highly browser specific (not really portable) and work very sluggish on low end machines 2.) type ahead autocompletion facilities are *very* restricted in browser based interfaces 3.) the only way I found to automatize complex printing tasks from browser based interfaces was via XML-RPC calls to print servers, requiring the print servers being set up properly - which can be as much installation hassles as installing client GUI software Have you tried OSCAR lately? I reckon their web based interface (which runs on Mozilla now) is rather slick - for a web interface. I could picture myself working with it, but it requires reasonably fast machines in the same way as GUI clients would, maybe even more so, due to Java scripts nature Horst _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk
