gecko is a good method for developing desktop software, right?
I'm thinking about the methods of developing cross platform desktop software those days, I think the advantage of gecko is that it seperates layout, styles and event response information(code), which is a correct direction for software development, as I saw this direction in web development. Other methods(gtk, qt, wx) may still stay at the traditional stage, which mix layout information with event response code. Am I right? what's your opinion about the direction of desktop software development? thanks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Apparently it isn't MVC, but Model, View, Delegate and Selections. Cheers, Kelly Clowers -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

For gecko, I hope XUL can be > integrated into html, is that possible? I know XUL can mix with other xml, including xhtml and mathML. I can't speak to the rest since my programming ability only goes as far as a little bash and perl scripting and a few quarters of Java. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
