Hola!

The equivalent to IB into WebObjects is WO Builder. I do not use it in a regular base (I develop Cocoa/EO Apps, which are closer to NeXT's EOF-Client/Server) but I know that it is good enough for most web-apps; especially if you are planning to use WO's EOF as your persistence mechanism.

However, if you are planning to develop a *more fancy* web-interface, you may better take a look to other technologies; e.g., Java Client. It will allow you to design (in IB) a full "desktop-like" interface while deploying thru the inter/intra-net. Be aware that it is NOT designed for the internet (it is too slow for that; at least with the default values), but you can learn from there what kind of HTML is needed to communicate with a server, while having a full interface running on Swing.

Suerte!
Dino

Long lost NeXTSTEP developer here.

I need to design some user interfaces for a web application for specifcation
purposes. I want to do it quickly without having to deal with HTML,
javascript, XML or any similar baggage. As a previous fan of Interface
Builder from NeXTSTEP days I am hoping I might use IB in its WebObjects
incarnation for this purpose. FrontPage, Dreamweaver require to much fussing
about with HTML details. Will IB do what I need? If not can anyone suggest
another tool.


Thanks
