  1. Re:Let me save everyone the trouble :) on Blake Ross Working on Parakey Web OS · · Score: 0

    Take a look at http://www.eclayer.com/. It largely does what you are doing. Eclayer wraps SQLite, ImageMagick, provides controlled access to the file system, and also lets you define handlers for events like 'no web connection available' / 'site not available'. It also provides AJAX bridges that allow you to do mashups directly from the browser.

    Our clients are mainly in the corporate sector and have built really interesting applications that combine content from their intranets, files and data on their local computer, and in some cases data from the public web.

    One client has even built a complete analysis environment for their Sybase applications, all written in Javascript.

  2. Ahhh .. the good old days ... on Adult .IE Domain Names Banned As Immoral · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Back in the good old days when the leprachauns were running the Irish Domain Registry we still could'nt use those immoral words for fear of not getting our share of the pot of gold. But the leprachauns have abandoned the Irish Domain Registry and are now the elected Government of Ireland. They are still buying our happiness with pots and pots of gold. Sure why would you be wanting to use those immoral words anyway?

    SQLite, ImageMagick and controlled file system access are already available on the client-side to web-pages via the eclayer AJAX API. See http://www.eclayer.com/
