I know, I know... I've been promising a demo of the new widgets for several weeks. But the non-arrival of a demo does not mean development has been slow. Please, check the widget audit status page... it's getting very close to being fully completed except for table/grid stuff: http://wiki.xwt.org/Wiki.jsp?WidgetAuditStatus I have a problem when it comes to releasing things like demos. I'm not happy to release something with known bugs. Also, as I keep making progress on other widgets, I get eager to include them and hence that delays a demo even further. However, a demo is forthcoming. Given the progress on all the widgets, it should be done this week. (Honestly!) Once all the widgets are working and bug free, really, there will be no excuse for me to delay any further. And we're only really talking about submenu, spin, and tree off the top of my head. That should not be a week's worth of work. Of course, any help in getting the widgets up to speed is welcome. :) Also, if anybody fancies, I would kill (just name the target) for grid functionality in the core so I can do table and I can glorfiy a couple of the other widgets. I would also like (but am not willing to kill for) the 'complete' redirect functionality that Adam was talking about a while back, where you could have a template literally make itself invisible by redirecting everything to it's target, including child manipulation calls: <box id="top"><redirecting id="middle"><box id="content" /></redirecting></box> Where $top[0][] refers to $contents' children. - Charlie The future of webapps - www.xwt.org
