Hi. thanks for your reply. I learned php and I have created several web application before. But all i ever do, is creating php files with one html form an some php tags that manipulate data and sends it to a database or another web page (or to itself). Now i like try building a web pages that have several widgets, gadgets or anything. Therefore i make a web page like a portal that each segments work independently of each other, something like home page of gmail or in igoogle or anything. I examined HTML frames in a project, recently. But, indeed it wasn't a thing that i looking for. Because the gadgets can have been removed by user, but HTML frames are static absurd things in web page. *In summary, I looking for a technology to build php pages with some independent sections.* On Fri, Nov 20, 2009 at 11:21 PM, Ashley Sheridan <ash@ashleysheridan.co.uk>wrote: > On Fri, 2009-11-20 at 23:15 +0330, Ali Asghar Toraby Parizy wrote: > > Hi > How can i create a web page that include some gadgets? what kind of > technology do i have to use to creating web pages like igoogle and gmail? > How can i create them by php? > > > Wow! > > Well, first what is it you want to do?
