Hi Jim -- <<< In summary, a form in Access and HTML 5 can be built in minutes... >>> Yes, I know. (Learning here KnockoutJS binding, JavaScript, jQuery, ...) <<< lets see someone build the same form, with the same function and appearance, in native code, in minutes. >>> For WinPhone that "native code" will be XAML and SilverLight - no more work than with Access or HTML5. For iPhone and Android - there should be something similar - I mean high level UI design tools... The point is not speed of execution of applications. The point is not the speed of UI development. The point is -> quoting Marc Zuckerberg: "Our Biggest Mistake Was Betting Too Much On HTML5" see: http://techcrunch.com/2012/09/11/mark-zuckerberg-our-biggest-mistake-with-mobile-was-betting-too-much-on-html5/ and "Over the next 3-5 years the question that's on everyone's mind is going to be how well we do with mobile" see: http://mashable.com/2012/09/11/mark-zuckerberg-post-ipo-interview/ Thank you. -- Shamil Mon, 17 Sep 2012 16:17:38 -0700 от "Jim Lawrence" <accessd at shaw.ca>: >Hi Shamil: > > HTML 5 is not some high speed development engine, it is more like VB or VBA > and it is built just for FE presentations. > > If you interested in super high performance a programmer should start > looking at Java, at the least and most likely C or C++.
