Hi Prafulla, If you absolutely must make use of a synchronous call, that is not considered a good design practice. I would urge, that if it is possible to change your design to make use of asynchronous calls, there is nothing better than that. It keeps the user experience good and is a good design to follow for browser based apps.
Yes we do use asynchronous calls at places like DataRequest.send(). And this is a very common api. Let me know what you think.
