Synchronous Ajax requests are a very very bad thing to use. If your server does not respond quickly, it will not only lock up that browser window/tab, but in many browsers it will lock up *every* browser window/tab.
If you can describe a bit more about what you need to do, I'll bet I can suggest a way to do it with asynchronous Ajax calls instead of synchronous. -Mike On Mon, Jun 28, 2010 at 11:36 AM, Suresh Deivasigamani < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > I am using gadgets API to retrieve the contents of REST web > services.
