A web-delivered XUL app can definitely do this. But that's pushing the limits of what can be considered a web application. > 3) Drag and drop JavaScript can definitely do this. AFAIK Zimbra (http://www.zimbra.com) does this. D&D w/ the desktop environment may not be supported though. > 4) Resizable windows (i.e. not the browser window) within the > application. Possible, but difficult. I believe that some great cleverness with JavaScript and absolutely-positioned DIV's can probably come pretty stinking close, and Flash can definitely do this (but that doesn't really count). Not tested. > 5) Anything other than absolutely trivial graphical programs. Correct there. - Michael -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
