Purely awesome. Jack Slocum just raised the bar. The app works just a like SWT, Swing or any other desktop app. Add support for context menu, then no one can really tell.
Wowee. This is fantastic stuff. Operates just like a desktop app! Very impressive indeed.
Well done!
I would have to agree, that looks incredible.
The most amazing part is this quote “in a few hours worth of work I was able to create an Ajax front end for this forum”
Awesome job.

Apparently there is a big power outage in Santa Monica where my hosting provider is and the site is down until they get power.
