Heise reports about a Free Eclipse Web Development Plugin “W4 Eclipse” by german softwaremaker Innopract that provide their W4Toolkit and have an english page up aswell – read bout the advantages and the library components...

Be sure to check out the hot online demos of their DHTML gui elements. They have an online-catalog tree with 18000 elements dynamically loading stuff from the server – all done in DHTML... Be also sure to checkout the example code, which sure looks very compact and easy to use…

BTW: it seems there is a massive interest in their plugin, since their server seems to be near to a knock-out… :) I hope their toolkit generates more stable web applications ;&

Well, the development plugin into Eclipse is free, but corporations who want to deploy that will have to get the runtime-license for their server after development here for 810 to 3468 EUR ...

oops – while typing this, the server dropped out completely..
