Just to be clear:
async:
jsProxy.getValue();
function myCallBack(r){
returnedValue = r;
}
-request is sent to server and a event handler is set
-js code continues to execute without waiting for the response
-when request is returned, event triggers and send the result to the
callback function
sync
returnedValue = jsProxy.getValue();
-request is sent to server
-js is held in a loop until it get response from server
Or sometyhing :)
So the difference is that in sync mode, the call returns a value
directly and in async the js code continues to execute and the result
is event triggered.
Not that I could find any traces of events in the cfajaxproxy code, so
I might very well be mistaken :)
