Lets back up 1 step. Normally Ajax would make requests to either html or cfc's in order to get bits of data. Many service-tier objects return this type of data, so by creating a 'proxy' object (which sits in the web root and is directly accessible from the internet, you are providing a way for the web to reach *past* your event's, directly into your service tier, to get at those atomic functions with their data returns. jsmx is client side, so when making a request to your proxied userService object, in my example you would point jsmx at /ajax/remoteUserService.cfc?method=doesUserExist
Does that make sense? All the proxy for is to *proxy* requests past model-glue's event structure to your underlying architecture.
