ZK Framework for RIA.

Rich Internet Application going to rule web this year or coming years, as I blogged last week. ZKoss seems to me emerging open source framework to create Rich Internet Application and it is AJAX based. We experienced lot of pain when we used AJAX in our web application, the main issue is browser compatibility and maintaining state across multiple browser windows. So all technologists are bit biased towards AIR(Flex based from Adobe) for RIA. Good part about ZK is there is no JavaScript code required to create RIA, rather it uses a simple XML file (called zul files) to specify user interface and ZK takes care of client and server side AJAX processing. We no need to worry about all other AJAX pitfalls. ZK works with any languages such as Java,Ruby and PHP and easily portable across different languages. The web applications developed by using ZK is just looking like a desktop application. Here is more information about ZK http://www.zkoss.org/
