It becomes interesting if the approach is built into the application as a service layer, instead of features or some enabled widgets on top of a purely static approach (which there are often off).
I can throw in my xmlhttprequest treeview, menu, wysiwyg widget, but I see that only as parts of the approach. The underlying surface should be in that approach too. In the perfect situation you only load the app once, and update it from then. That is the stuff that will tickle your balls.

Yeah, it requires some people to pioneer its efforts up front in a transparent enough manner in order to give that puppy some flight. I heard Amazon are using its concept and while XmlHttpRequest is all nice and cute to use and works on lots of browsers etc... that aside, you still have to use the data from your remoting in a rich UI approach - thats where people need to get onboard and understand something others have figured out... DHTML (remoting aside) is going to hurt to build. Bindows.net and DOMAPI do a nice enough job in regards to Controls/container development and all the power to them. Just there is more to AJAX than meets the eye imho. -- Regards, Scott Barnes http://www.mossyblog.com http://www.flexcoder.com (Coming Soon) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
