From: Dot Smidt on 3 Feb 2010 01:13 Hello, everyone. Today I picked up Ubuntu User magazine, and I happened upon an article on Ruby, which brought me here. I am looking for a detailed answer about what can be done with Ruby. First, if someone has the time, could you please look at this. http://code.google.com/p/parchment/ Is it possible to do this with Ruby. I understand the language itself is very capable, but I am looking for a detailed yes or no answer. The idea is to have an entire webpage with an interactive interface. The example above uses a combination of programming technologies to provide this. Does Ruby have the capability to create controls or web components that are pretty much a cli (command line interface) which can be exposed to a browser. I am not too knowledgeable about scripting languages and CGI. I know a server side language like PHP can NOT do this. How about Ruby/CGI, etc. Does anyone have an example of something similar. BTW, I do mean completely in Ruby, nothing external, except html/xhtml for defining pages. A good explanation here might push me toward picking up Ruby. I would be willing to learn the language for just such a project. Also the above link is based on the Inform interpreter at inform7.com. Are, there any interactive fiction systems written in ruby? Lots of questions. As one last attempt to make sure I am clear about what I am asking, can Ruby be used to write an interactive fiction interpreter such as glulxe (with graphics) or zoom and can this interpreter be exposed to a browser. loading images and etc. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

The only client-side language you can rely on is JavaScript. Best, -- Marnen Laibow-Koser http://www.marnen.org marnen(a)marnen.org -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hey.. Wanna try Ruby in your browser? http://tryruby.org/ It's a text interface! Alright -- alright -- it's not just Ruby. It's also got Javascript. Still, it's close to what you're asking about, isn't it? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
