As I told, I'm not talking about javascript/html compilers and ajax 
frameworks. Pyjamas is both a javascript compiler and  an ajax 
framework. My Python module would connect to a database server and query 
some data, then display it in a grid. This cannot be compiled into 
javascript because of the database server connection. With pyjamas, I 
would have to create the server side part separately, the user interface 
separately, and hand-code the communication between the widets and the 
server side. I would like to use this theoretical web based framework 
just like pygtk or wxPython: create windows, place widgets on them, 
implement event handlers etc. and access the widgets and other server 
side resources (for example, a database connection) from the same source 
code. Transparently. So the web part would really just be the rendering 
part of the user inferface. This may not be possible at all..

My other idea was to use a freenx server and wxPython. Is it a better 
solution? Have anyone used this combination from an android tablet, for 
example? Would it work?

Thanks,
