1. Using HTML,
you can customize the look of your conference.
2. To combat HTTP's statelessness,
Web-conferencing applications continually retransmit user identity, preferences, and other session-specific information.
3. Information hierarchy can be encoded in HTML
but only statically. To expand a thread requires a complete display refresh--a new HTML page that represents the expanded view.
5. User-interface controls appear as clickable buttons.
Their actions are defined by code that's auto-generated with this page. When you click on a button, the system generates a new page with a new set of (possibly user-customized) buttons.
Flexible C++
Matthew Wilson
My approach to software engineering is far more pragmatic than it
is
theoretical--and no language better exemplifies this than C++.
