Using JAVA? to build a desktop GUI Client for a CMS....
Im developing a CMS and want to build some type of desktop GUI that can run on atleast windows, and *nix if possible..
I think JAVA is the best solution for this,
What I plan to do, is have a set of scripts on the webserver, and have this java app connect to these individual files depending on what option the user wants to carry out, then the data is sent to the desktop client, and is displayed, and this would allow them to add/edit/delete/list content and such..
Would Java be best for this? Or something else?
Also, I would need to learn Java, can you recommend and books that would help me with this task?
Thanks for your time,
Eric Coleman

You could also try one of the Cross-browser, cross-platform dHTML APIs. I'm currently looking at using DOMAPI to build an interface for a CMS i'm developing. check it out at http://www.domapi.com . It's pretty impressive... based on dan steinman's original DynDuo API.

Well it might sound dumb... but ! GTK-PHP !?
hmm o.k. guys. so lets get this straight!
you guys start coming up with java, right ? this sould really dumb.
for everyone haveing ever coded java and databases
and than coded php knows pretty well how suckee java can be.
also it would involve installing a suckee VM.
so why not packing up a GTK-PHP self executiong exe ?
with a php-gtk written backend ?
since you coded a CMS you should know PHP well, and php-gtk should not be the problem to learn. anyway. it's your decision.
