Hi Priscilla,
Your e-mail address suggests that you work for a little company called
Intel. Perhaps you can convince them that purchasing RH or WWP (WebWorks
Publisher) would be more cost-efficient than paying you to reinvent the
wheel.
Geoff Hart was concerned that WWP needs a very powerful computer to run
effectively with large projects, but since you're working on "a simple web
application," that shouldn't be an issue.
Good Luck,
Dan Goldstein
