RE: netWindow - PHP data transfer model

Hi,

I wonder what you think of the following scheme to integrate netWindows into
a Bibliographic management web application. I have tried to visualize my
thoughts on how we can construct the program with a maximum of third-party
code and a minimum of our own. You can see the result at  

http://www.panya.de/bibliograph/dev/Bibliograph%20Architecture.htm 

The basic idea is to use a very modular approach with highly abstracted data
format, so that individual modules can be changed if that is necessary for
some reason. In the graphic the green boxes are what we would have to write
ourselves, everything else exists. You can click on some of the boxes to see
a possible implementation of the module. 

So the data would be stored in an SQL database, XML files, or a ODBC source.
(See http://opensource.visionp.biz/index.php?id=85 for the PEAR::Tree class,
which would make this possible).

Our script would query the database through XML_RPC and display the result
through netWindows. User Input is either processed through JavaScript and
then sent to the Database by XML-RPC or through file upload to the converter
(for import of bibliographic data).

I would be interested what you think and whether there is some redundancy
with what is already present in NetWindows.
