Thanks for the reply - Yeah, I meant stopPropagation(), apologies. If I understand you correctly, you're saying that because events go through a top-down (parent-to-child) capture phase before they bubble up, it would be possible for someone to mistakenly add a capture-phase listener to the event.

I'm sure someone already pointed this out, but network latency is also a factor. AMF is a compressed format, so it can load faster and in that sense make your app more responsive. With XML web services, the tags themselves add a degree of overhead. There are schemes for compressing web services
