GWTPHP = Google Web Toolkit + PHP 5
By dgirard on Saturday 4 October 2008, 10:08 - GWT Library - Permalink
Unlike most of the other frameworks, GwtPHP is a framework for both client and server part. In GwtPHP you don’t need to hack JavaScript, you work with modern, object oriented languages. User intefrace (client) is programmed in Java, then compiled by Google Web Toolkit (GWT) to browser-dependent JavaScript. Server part uses PHP 5 - the most used web scripting language today.
In France, I'm trying to convince the PHP community that GWT is not about Java. It is about having a powerful and friendly client site technology. They start to be receptive to this message. This kind of product will help me to spread the word :-).

So Class-based OO is modern OO ?

Trouble is, you cannot use GwtPHP yet as it's not available. They have not replied to my email either. Strange.
