texte = Aloha all! I think I built my first site in early '96. It was called WebCatalog then and we ran it on mac quadras/mac clones (anyone remember these clones!) with WebMerchant/MacAuthorize connected via a phone line to process transactions. Believe it or not, we had a whole bunch of sites on WebDNA systems and even developed a site for MIT's Digital Media Lab where it has faithfully run since 1998. Clients like Disney, Kodak, Nike, Chrysler, Lotus, FedEx, and so many more used our systems that were built on WebDNA. We even won best of show for Content Management in 1998 at Internet World Boston for a product that was based on WebDNA. Stopped using it for years but now using it to prototype a few systems - still rocks after all these years. My latest project is ChipIn (http://www.chipin.com/) (in Java right now - soon to be in Rails) but we do have some next gen systems being prototyped in other languages including WebDNA. On a more technical note, so far on one project we are pushing WebDNA pretty hard. The only thing that I have found lacking that requires quite a bit of hacking is posting a file upload from a flash app. For some reason such a post crashes WebDNA on Windows and on Linux WebDNA doesn't have access to the url args which is the only way to append args along with a flash file upload. Other than that, very happy with our recent purchase of 6.0.
