YES - think of the fact that a script solution is *a bit* more open to anybody outside (hackers or other companies who might copy parts of your webpage concept for any reason) than a compiled applet - and a script solution should run slower in many non-JIT cases (of cause that comes into consideration when you want to graphically enhance the webpage appearance later).IMHO the main point is:Does the company looking for a solution have "to feed" several separate design and programming departments - or is it a smaller company with developpers (getting a higher salary or even being owner of [parts of] the company) that can combine programming and design concepts in one project on their own - perhaps like Tomm in his company.sincerely,U.
