The only limitation is accessing data from external domains. We can work around it in a few ways. 1. Including externally hosted JS. E.g. Tapestry home page includes an external twitter widget. 2. We can also periodically save a given external RSS feeds to a file on our server with a cron'd curl command, and then read it with JS hosted on our site. Andrus
