While I know that's true at present, I did write something a few years 
back (before these AJAX frameworks were created) that converted 
Gambas 1.0 forms to HTML+CSS on the fly, and added a lot of Javascript 
event handlers to handle clicks and things like that.  Of course, the 
server side was written in perl, and the whole thing turned out to be 
incredibly clumsy.  But it allowed serving up Gambas forms on the web 
and, to a degree, having them act like normal desktop app forms.

It was far from a literal Gambas web form designer, but I really think 
such a thing would be possible if the other things we've been talking 
about on this thread came to be.
