eGroupWare layout proposal based on extjs

[Lars_Kneschke-2]

Hello!

A colleague of mine took the time to implement a new basic layout for
eGroupWare based on extjs. I prepared a wiki page in our wiki to keep you
updated about our progress. Just have a look at:

http://cs.officespot.net/index.php/Egroupware_layout_proposal
Feel free to download the code or just have a look at the online demo. If
you discover any other problem please update the list of open topics on the
wiki page.

I just updated the website, stating some of the goals we like to achieve. I
also improved the demo and fixed some problems.

Hi devs,

Looks amazing Lars!

One doubt, How this layout & ui should be integrated with etemplates?

Thanks in advance!

Hi lars,

i like the layout! i’ll try to make an js-backend for xml-rpc
connection, so we can quickly work with “real-data” w.o. the need of
changing to much in egw in this stage.

Hi Conny,

you can use the stuff from the brasilians, they used xmlrpc to connect
with their javascript based frontend.

After playing around with js and xml-rpc i’ll skip this subproject.
All findable xml-rpc js-classes are unmaintained and there releases are
are about 5 years old.

But the main problem is, that they are all not cross-domain capable.

The “Ext.data.ScriptTagProxy” however manages to connect cross-domain
and therefore seems the best choice for the connection. But all the
embeded logig of the Ext.data.XmlReader is not suited for xml-rpc. It’s
perfect for reading xml-feeds but not able to handle the xml-rpc protocoll.

So i think i better spend my time and take a look into a json interface.
There the Ext.data.JsonReader fits perfectly and as php6 will have
native json parsers this is the way to go anyway.

PHP5.2 already has the native JSON parser included by default. For 5.1 the
parser is available as PECL extension.

I already implemented a basic json concept for the proposal. I’ll try to
document it over the day. I will also make the source code available after
i have removed some ugly debug statements.

Also have a look at Ext.data.JsonStore. It makes the setup a little bit
easier.

Konqueror will very likely not be able to display it, but following
browsers are supported:

* Internet Explorer 6+
* FireFox 1.5+ (PC, Mac, *nix)
* Safari 2+
* Opera 9+ (Mac, PC)

Just have a look at http://www.extjs.com .
