OpenLaszlo is an open source platform for developing user-friendly Web-based applicatio
ns that work identically across all popular browsers and platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux®, IE, Firefox, Safari, etc). It supports a rich graphics model with scalable vectors, bitmaps, movies, animation, transparency, fonts, audio, streaming media, reusable components, user-interface widgets, control panels, property sheets, keyboard navigation, browser Back-button navigation, as well as advanced WYSIWYG text and graphical editing tools. In other words, OpenLaszlo is the velvet glove for the iron fist of PHP. It does all this by taking an XML and JavaScript-based application, and compiling it into a form that can be readily understood by the browser. At the time of this writing, that form is a Flash movie -- without the need for the actual Flash application. OpenLaszlo has been used for such applications as LaszloMail (a full-service e-mail client deployed by Earthlink), the Pandora music discovery service (an interface for listening to your personalized Internet radio stations), and reusable components, such as Pie menus (directional menu selection of pie slice-shapedtargets).
