World: r3wp

what I'm saying is that these things will part of document model 
which you either define yourself, or pick and choose from 3rd party.


moliad.net is a test bed for this new remark technology and out of 
it, quite a few document models will be born.  One big feature of 
remark is that rtags use REBOL data, not HTML syntax.  so you can 
structure stuff with the cleaner rebol syntax, ex:


<!table  labels:  [ name birthdate city ]   label-styles:  [inverted-label 
label label ] column-styles: [bold-text text text ] data: <sql! select 
[name date city ] from users-table >>


note here that the <sql! tag is parsed first, so its data will be 
fetched and inserted within the table.

alternatively, for simplicity, one could build a  <!user-list> tag 
which is defined as <sql! select [name date city ] from users-table 
>  and use that simpler tag in the !table definition.

the styles might also be rtags and the sets of tags too.    all is 
parsed as text within the engine, which you can load as data or as 
text within your rtags.

this way all tags can inter-operate even if they are defined in different 
document models.

this means a <!users-table> tag which is defined via <!table>  could 
actually generate different content if the <!user-list> tag from 
various document models are used in different parts of your site 
or one different sites.   


meaning that the same content pages, will ultimately adapt to the 
document models used, and not the other way around, which is how 
we are used to building web pages.

Sounds powerful, but how do you see this stuff working in standard 
tools for editing web apps? What you describe above is not valid 
xhtml, for example.

there could also be issues with valid characters between (x)html/REBOL, 
no?

It would be nice to at least have some schema/DTD support from standard 
editors, but as you have it, that wouldn't work.

just thinking about how this would work in the typical web development 
environment wrt people, roles, tools, etc

you should move to remark group :-)

was thinking just that  :-)

I'll reply there...

Three typos I noticed during a quick (foggy headed) read:

intergral -> integral

multipy -> multiply  ; <- this typo probably causes a loose word 
('multiply set in global context), but not stop the script working.
verisons -> versions

Thanks, Anton

I've corrected the error, run the test suite and uploaded the corrected 
version.

Very nice Ashley!

Graham: "Are you standing?" ... yes (click About to see more details).

Unusual ... most of these family first type of parties are usually 
strongly allied to the christian right

you'd be an atheist amongst the christians!

Policywatch: Very very cool, Ashley.

That page is pretty fast. Does it run on Cheyenne?

Apache .. I peeked

MML? This is a rebol dialect?

That's what it looks like to me.

jankoL I did all the graphics myself, I have a few carreers behind 
me  ;-)

If Ashley has a rebol dialect that outputs html/css/javascript then 
that is a direct route for rebol on all major smart phones including 
iphone via 'phonegap'

i mean rebol "developed" apps as it won't be rebol running on the 
phone...

janko.. my site is all built using remark, and uses jquery (which 
I used for the menues) embed as a module

I'd really like to see more about MML Ashley.
 ... http://www.dobeash.com/MML/mml.html


Note that this is still a WIP (it's evolving as my site requirements 
evolve).

Absolutely fantastic!  Can we download the script?  (drooling)

Looks excellent Ashley.

Nick, you're going to have to vote for Ashley first!

OK, he gets my vote - whatever we're voting on :)  What do I have 
to do to get my hands on MML - this is really useful!

Ok, you just need to be an Australian citizen, move to Ashley's electorate 
and vote for him!

Only if I could have a personal guarantee that REBOL will make its 
way into the government PCs in Higgins :)

Thank you Chris, AltJSON is really usefull 8-)

You can track the Altjson issues at http://jira.rebolsource.net:8080/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa

Chris or Graham, do you know if %json.r on json.org needs to change? 
That is, does it do the right thing given whatever scenario it is 
that required altjson to change?

I stopped using json.r because it didn't do something for me ... 
can't recall what it was now :(

Can't json.org point to Chris' version as well?

maybe it was the GPL license??

I think I had an escaping issue with json.r last time I used it. 
But as that was in 2008, so I guess this has been fixed, since.

I think GPL was Romano's original. Not sure if we can find him to 
ask about changing it. I'm all for MIT or the JSON license.


If there are any bugs, let me know. Provided tests will get added 
to my suite.

Chris, Maarten also included switches to encrypt and decrypt files 
being stored on S3 ... do you want to tackle that as well?  :)

S3 is also used for storing large files... so probably one needs 
to alter the http protocol to save content directly to a disk file

Or:  U is the same as C on S3 (as near as I can tell) and D is a 
little way off.

Switches, is that the 'md5 parameter?

I think U is the same as C

As opposed to R, as I'd previously stated : (
