Thanks Dan & James....I get where you're coming from now ;-)

Currently alot of our AJAX work is in 3 major areas:

1) Validating form data and returning an error message to display
Better than a full form post and screen reload

2) Search Results
We make the request and return the HTML for the search results table and 
pagination controls

3) Lookups
We show a hidden DIV (containing some search criteria).  The user fills the 
criteria and an AJAX call returns the     data to the DIV.

I do see now how we could make other interfaces (like Dan's example) that are 
less like standard form processing where returning a JS object would be quite 
handy.

So which AJAX flavours that have been flying around give that ability?

Thanks
