Most browsers have native JSON methods nowadays. Significant speed
benefit when you use them. Of course, there's always the question of
when it isn't available: do you load in a library, which, and when?

.NET or Ruby on Rails will probably work fine.
We've used both Python (with SQLObject) and Haskell (with CouchDB) as
backends for our Flapjax applications.
Right. We've used MySQL and CouchDB.
Anything works. Flapjax is entirely server agnostic.
Flapjax will not automatically make your applications secure. When

I think the trick is to split Flapjax into three pieces:
1. core FRP
2. Reactive DOM
3. Additional stuff
We'll distribute 1+2+3 as "Flapjax." 1+2 is still useful,
particularly in combination with prototype/jQuery. Just 1 alone is
slightly useless, but separating it from 2 gives us the option of

Hi Arjun,

Thats weird, its working now :)

I have another question, I am building a commercial web application in
flapjax and I had a few questions. I would be grateful if you could
point me in the right direction.

1. Flapjax is a client side framework, would I need to implement a
server side platform for server operations and data persistence, e.g

REPL is working now. Cool. The script must have been cached by FF, sorry.

I usually use jQuery with Flapjax and I don't think Flapjax should be tied
to any specific Javascript framework.
I agree that Flapjax Dom manipulation is sometimes lacking compared to
Prototype or jQuery, and regret having to download both Flapjax and another
framework, when Flapjax largely supersedes the event management and Ajax

I saw in the OOPSLA paper that Flapjax takes a page from Prototype for
some of its DOM and Javascript helpers. I was wondering why not just
place a dependency on Prototype instead of copying the functionality?

I just installed Firefox 3.0.15 on Windows XP. It's my first
installation, so no addons.

Both the timer and standalone REPL work fine. I doubt it's an issue
with a minor point release. (I can't seem to get Firefox 3.0.14 from mozilla.org
. I'm not getting it from 3rd-party sources since I don't run a virus

The compiler stuff is attached to the end. You can simply chop it
off. Furthermore, the flapjax library is wrapped in a "module" that
makes a portion of the Flapjax functions private. The code to export
public functions is lengthy.
I've attached a version of the library that removes the wrapper and

Hi Ravi,

Could you be more specific? What web browser are you using? Do you
have JavaScript enabled?

Can the library be smaller?

2009-11-04T04:40:53Z

Hi,
I know we can minimize the library, but I saw some mention that part of the
library is for the compiler. Would it be possible to remove that part?
Thanks

Here is a screen shot on Windows FF 3.0.14. There is no area to input
anything. The box with the solution is there though (not on the screen shot.
I had no idea what it was supposed to do until I saw your screenshot.
