Thank you everyone for all your rapid answers! I'm humbled. :) I'm researching now all the various solutions/languages/packages mentioned, quite an evening tea break task!
In the meantime I'd like to chime in that the application I'm making really must work off line as well as on line, as many of our potential users may not have regular internet access! If it's an installable, it really has to be dead-easy to install, would any of the solutions you guys just mention allow the application to be easily installed [Windows, OSX, Linux] AND run off line or on line? It would be devastating to the project to code something with a package/language and then be stuck with something most people don't understand how to get running... If it runs off line/on line I can see that being done via a browser [in both cases, locally run or from a server] or via a local projector [or equivalent] file for locally run non-internet access - in all cases, local files need to be read/written, and any software + data updates need to be synced between on and off line running versions [if distinctly different version] - which potentially complicates things. Hopefully the recommendations just mentioned take this into account (?) More from me as I educate myself enough to reply! :) Sebastian.
