Hi Dan, List,

Great work with ObTS! I just installed it on a testserver and it worked
after including the get_file_contents-function. At first I tried to let it
display the standard 'Testsite'-package, but that gave me an error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: cobjgetsingle() in
/var/www/testsite/typo3conf/ext/obts/tslib_content/class.tslib_cobj_stdwrap.php
on line 1062

Don't know if this is something that's going to be fixed, couldn't figure
out how to fix it myself anyway. cObjGetSingle is a member of
tslib_cobj_content, but it didn't really help to let the stdwrap-class
extend from tslib_cobj_content...

A template with a TEXT-object and a FORM did work, looks very promising!
(Though I find everything somewhat confusing still...)

Two things though:

1. A little while ago I read something about a special TypoScript-editor
and I realised that it would be VERY great if it could automatically show
which properties/methods are available on the 'selected' object. This
ObTS-thing could really assist with that, but I thought it would be wise
to choose unique classnames then:
>From a 'auto-complete'-point-of-view it's currently hard to tell if you're
working on a TEXT-object in a PAGE-object, or in a TEXT-object in a
GIFBUILDER-object. Maybe now is the time to change these classnames so
that all image-builder-classes (gifbuilder is not very apropriate anymore
too...) are prefixed with IMG_ or something. (The current IMG_TEXT would
have to be renamed too I guess.)

What do you all think about this?

2. Typo can ultimately be used to generate not just HTML, but also e.g.
WAP-pages. How could such a thing be implemented?
One way would be to call something like setupWML() instead of setupHTML().
I don't really need this functionality though, just being curious :)

Thanks for ObTS!

Grtz,
Martin
