Yes, the alerts were there just to illustrate that I am trying to push some JavaScript objects over the wire. In my project code I also have additional methods that will be called on these objects (i.e. sorting, pagination, etc...) that make it faster for the client end if I just use these objects instead of traversing the HTML; it also makes it easier for me to implement and is independent of any changes made to the markup.
If the example I provided is some one-off implementation, then let me know and I will start looking into some comet alternatives or try to come up with some "hack". Is there a way to currently check if the page is ready for the partialUpdate? If so, then I can just add some guard to the cases in my partial function passed to lowPriority.
