My opinions (and/or feelings) right now:
Python is my language of choice because of its fast development, oo design, portability, maturity, and good user base. Now I'm looking for a good application server. I don't like a servlet only solution. I prefer to create xhtml documents with coded inserted in it (psp style) so that it still looks like an xhtml document. But I only want display logic in the psp file. What I despise is:
method 1 <?php data logic .... echo "<html>\r\n"; echo "<head>\r\n"; echo "<title>".$title."</title>\r\n"; echo ...
I prefer:
method 2
require('datalogic.php');<html>
<head>
<title><?=$title?><title>
...I use php examples because that's what I'm familiar with.
I've used method 1 for a while and this is what I see in the servlet only approach. method 2 makes for much cleaner presentation xhtml files.
Templates. Don't like them. Why use templates when method 2 works fine and is clean.
I'm new to servlet jargon, so please excuse me if I show my ignorance. It looks like with webware, I can create a psp file that, when requested, can call on a servlet, which using various classes does the dirty work and returns the results to the psp file for display. Is this correct? Is webware the best open source application server available to work in this manner? I would appreciate any advice on which direction I should take. Thanks.
