[web2py] Re: Review my web2py app: Radbox.me
Its called a bookmarklet and I believe it was popularized by blogs like Wordpress and Tumblr - by clicking their bookmarklet you can create a new post for example. We faced a lot of challenge in trying to extract embedded video from the server side - because various sites use very different mechanisms (javascript, flash, ajax) to render embedded videos. That's why we resorted to client-side approach using a bookmarklet. Once a page is rendered we can parse the contents and grab what we need. However we will have to figure a way to execute javascript on the server side eventually - for example bookmarking a video by right clicking a url (without opening the page), something I wish for every time I want to queue a video from my twitter feed. Right now I have to click the url, open the page and then bookmark.

I did not know that you can put javascript in a bookmark instead of simply a URL and when you click on the bookmark the JS code is executed on the page you are currently visiting.

We don't intend to open source the application. We're flirting with the idea of putting up some of these features as slices/recipes/ plugins for easy reuse by the community. This might take a while though. If you need something specific I'll be happy to copy-paste the code and walk you over the implementation. Others can pitch in with better alternatives.

[web2py] Re: Review my web2py app: Radbox.me
We have not tested much with Opera - there may be some issues specific to the browser. I added the same video to my account (I use Chrome on Ubuntu 9.10) and I could add it: http://radbox.me/watch/video/502 I'll test it on Opera some time. Perhaps try in a webkit-based browser (Firefox/Chrome/Safari)? We've encountered some bugs in IE as well since we use a lot of jquery effects that IE doesn't really like much (and we don't like IE at all!). When you saw "Saving..." message once it saves the message should change to "Saved". Give it another shot. Sorry for the issue.

[web2py] Re: Review my web2py app: Radbox.me
This is surely a great app. Congratulations. I wish you success like a sea.
[web2py] Re: Review my web2py app: Radbox.me
I sure will... and I read your thread again - I started playing with web2py since the very early releases and coming from a j2ee background, the reduction in effort for creating a good application is amazing. :) Having said that, there are hundreds of web frameworks out there, and web2py is still very very young; the best way to evaluate a framework is to actually use it or watch it in action on a public app like ours. The framework makes development so fast developing an app will be faster than posting a thread. :) On May 11, 6:33 pm, Anthony wrote: > Now that's what I'm talking about (http://groups.google.com/group/ > web2py/browse_frm/thread/9f653dcf0493593d)!
