Hi Jonathon, What I need is like the struts2 integrate with dojo, when you want to use the AJAX function just add " theme='ajax' " in the form elements. and then the form have the AJAX function like submit it without refresh all page, auto validation the input, make the table pages AJAXed and so on.
I will create JIRA for this, and waiting for your contribute:) Thank you!
