I never heard of it as "event driven programming", but I think what it |
| 12 |
should refer to is the MVC pattern. The "events" for web applications |
| 13 |
are of such a homogenuous nature that it has no worth to think of it as |
| 14 |
"event driven". One needs a good understanding of MVC and the |
| 15 |
Doc/Controller model (and serialization of state data) for building |
| 16 |
fine complex webapps whose overall logic should keep being |
| 17 |
understandable. |

On the opposite, if you've just a plain simple page to display, MVC is |
| 20 |
definitely way too heavy. |
