My new Drupal 3D product...

It is a while I am working on a new product, which will be a 3d web site builder, using Away3d as its 3d engine, and some other Drupal modules to do the job.

The main concept is not something new, using services and amfphp modules to communicate with flash/flex, googling around provide you with many useful informations and even good tutorials around the matter.
There are a couple of other modules I am using, here is the list:

1. amfphp
2. cck
3. filefield
4. imagecache
5. imagefield
6. nodehierarchy
7. services
8. swfaddress
9. token
10. views

Plus a module called "D3D", which will handle 3d information on any content type you may want on the Drupal side.

Yet another application, which will be a flex app will be used for administration...

As soon as there is a demonstration site I will provide the link, this will be a commercial product, I am planning to release in 5-6 month.

Ajax in Joomla

We have started a new project on Joomla, it is all about Ajax in Joomla...
Right now page links are gone Ajax, just a proof of concept, there is some problems in IE, but FF is OK, we have chosen mootools for the Ajax part, as it seems to be used by Joomla core for the Ajax library...
I am thinking of openAjax Hub to be used in the project so that we may use any library in the project, like Rico and scriptaculous as well as any other developers consider.
Hmm... I should think of some Logo and design as well, any way I will continue the process and will post here :)

OpenAjax Hub

A few weeks ago, we where working on a project, where we need to use more than one Javascript library, we need Rico(openrico.org) and script.aculo.us, plus may be mootools, so they were not compatible and I couldn't find a solution for this, but tight now I found some sites, addressing the same problem, and better than that the solution, here it is:

OpenAjax Hub

So, go on check it, but let me just paste a brief here for you:

The OpenAjax Hub is a key technology component within the umbrella term OpenAjax Conformance. The OpenAjax Alliance recommends that Web developers and IT professionals demand OpenAjax Conformance as an industry requirement from its Ajax technology providers. By requiring OpenAjax Conformance, customers gain confidence in their technology and product choices and realize benefits in terms of the ability to integrate Ajax technologies from multiple suppliers, the ability to change suppliers at reduced costs, and increased certainty that their suppliers are adopting industry best practices. To be OpenAjax Conformant, among other requirements, Ajax runtime libraries must support the conformance criteria found within the OpenAjax Hub Specification.

hmmm, may be we have these standards in the future, I wish...
Any way project home is:

A MathML for CSS Profile: Working Draft

Well, I think this is great, waiting for the support in major browsers...

2007-09-24: The Math Working Group has published an updated Working Draft of A MathML for CSS profile. This subset of MathML 3.0 can be used to capture the structure of mathematical formulas in a way particularly suitable for further CSS formatting. Coordinated with ongoing work on CSS Level 3, the profile is expected to facilitate adoption of MathML in Web browsers and CSS formatters. Visit the Math home page. (Permalink)
