Works great!
Thanks so much for the article on your blog, and for helping me out
here on the group!
I really wanted to get this working, because it's a good concept, and
requestAction was really taking its toll in loading times.
The menu widgets now get loaded dynamically through the database, and
are draggable, so you can reorder them!
Seeing it all work now is just awesome!
Thx!
Gerben.
