EWB - will generate HTML and JavaScript and along with your graphics, Yes you can deploy this and it will work if you have no database or other backend interaction and are just building static pages with EWB.

If you need database capabilities then you can still deploy EWB but you also need to build a back end, probably in php to process what EWB will Post to you and do the interaction with the database and send results back.

Dear Walter,
  Well that's the problem because i need to use a database for storing
  information and as you know Linux supports only php and MySQL ...
  If Tim can find a solution to this i will defiantly consider EWB
  for my web development !!!

Thank you

Michael,

It's very much possible already though it requires little bit of extra
work (compared to using EWB web server).

You basically have to write the server side layer that gets the request,
queries the MySQL and returns the JSON.

JSON is very straightforward and reference is provided here :

EWB install does include some sample PHP scripts under
"examples\phpdataset". It's not a drop is replacement for MySQL since it
assumes the EDB PHP extension but core logic should be valid and just
needs to be updated to use MySQL connection and tables.

" If Tim can find a solution ...."

As Raul indicated Tim did provide a solution; a php example you can learn and build from.  In the initial EWB builds it was not possible.  EWB has already been enhance to the point where it is capable of deployment in the environment you would like, BUT you have to do some work.

Dear Walter,
  Well, he can make our life easier if he can put this into the
  "Visual" IDE with a component or something :D

  I'll give it a try though as soon as i find some free time ...

Thank you all !!!

I have two EWB apps running on a Linux web server that use PHP and MySQL for the backend, so it is indeed possible.

Michael,

The best that I'll probably be able to do at some point is to automate the
generation of the boilerplate PHP code.  But, the code that interfaces with
the database engine still needs to be coded by hand for any database engines
that aren't supported by default, and currently only ElevateDB is supported
in the PHP that we provide.

Dear Tim,
  It would be a big plus in the product if you can do this !!

Hi,
Does the PHP script only need to echo a JSON?
