XML, GWT, and PHP Tutorial from IBM Developworks
Here is an excellent XML, GWT,
and PHP Tutorial
at ibm.com/developerworks that explains the bridge between GWT and PHP
using XML. Applications created using GWT (Google Web Toolkit) uses PHP
web services to send and receive information in XML. GWT allows the
creation and access of servlets in Java through which data can be
passed between clients and servers. GWT does not limit communication
with such servlets, but can freely communicate with almost all types of
web services. This web development tutorial discusses and
demonstrates these concepts in detail.
