HyperCard and the Web

I have a problem with this… I learned to program using HyperCard and HyperTalk. What Dave has working is HyperTalk in an outline, with placeholders for GUI elements. Frontier has a great outliner. I won’t dispute it. But an outliner is not the place to develop visual interfaces.
