I you have existing vfp apps, using Thierry's tool might make sense.
But for new dev of a web based app, pls. explain why vfp is better than
other scripting laguages like PHP, Python, JS, Ruby, or frameworks like ASP.Net, Django, RoR ?
Cursors are not often needed there, vfp gets no enhancements in language or runtimes. Just look at what V8 started within JS space.
Even Rick cannot deliver all the stuff put forward in those other frameworks, even if he writes GREAT code.
>Gee, how about good old foxpro with jQuery and jQuery Mobile (this is a foxpro forum after all...), especially if you have a bunch of existing vfp code and experience. VFP is superior to PHP on windows. It just doesn't have as many free and cheap web apps available.
