The general rule of the thumb is aftter the service call you push the data into
a model which usually updates the view via binding. I always parse data into
array collections or other strong typed objects. Having the items into an array
collection enables you to bind to it if you're using List based components in
the view. However in your case yuou could listed to the collection change event
and do your thing manually. Send me the code via email and I'll try to debug
it. I cannot figure it out from what I see. I guess you make the call for the
data and the result gets back before the creation complete venet fopr the panel
fires.
