Hi, That's great advice.Thanks! I'm reading through the store.js and also saw the dojo.js alongwith it. I'll do as u said. BTW, where do a tuscany user configure the application to use dojo or jquery. I dont see it configured anywhere in the store example. Where can we add such a configuration. Just quote me project file names, search keywords or links for any of my trivial queries. I'll dig out the rest.
