for developping new interface, have a look to this ajax framework : http://rialto.application-servers.com/

The concept is pretty interesting but the site is extremely slow. I'm wondering if is my connection that makes it drag.

The first point is that Rialto is developped for corporate applications and
not for informative websites. Running on an Intranet with a 100mbps
network any of these problems would be visible.
So eating our own dog food for the web site was a mistake.

The second point is that it has not been optimized yet. It is on our schedule.

The last point is that Rialto has gained a large popularity in few days and
the web site is slashdoted all the day (from europe, us, china or japan).

Folks,

I think I've found the nirvana of ajax widgets: http://www.turboajax.com/turbowidgets.html.

Check out the database admin demo app. I plan on integrating this toolkit into some stuff I am doing with vTiger (such as Vip).

Very kool. I look forward to it.

Tried installing the DB Admin Demo locally and it gave a blank screen... it looks very very promising, but it is still in beta or even pre beta.

Have you checked out the script.aculo.us / Prototype Ajax frameworks? They make developing an Ajax interface very straightforward.

Particularly interesting are allowing HTML snippets to be inserted directly into elements (which would make adapting the existing code much easier) and ready made functions such as drag and drop, and auto-complete (for selecting accounts, etc without having to have a pop up window).
