No advantage there. ---------------------------------- You have not used CSS. Manipulation of a CSS is much easier then "crafting" controls. You miss the point that CSS abstracts the control from it's display. For web apps you would be surpised that time spent in the GUI is 60-40 or worse. The larger percentage is for making the Look where the lesser is for the functionality. CSS tries to offset that unbalance. > >> >> AJAX for visual correction of a true C/S feel for your app. > > Ok, but the winform app does this easily if done right, imo, so no > "magic" required. -------------------------------------------------- AJAX just hides the postback "flash" in the browser. Nothing more then hiding the true operation of what is going on. When you identify an item and need corresponding data you have to fetch it, and present it. It could be a change to the data in a second picker control, list or grid. In a winform app you don't have the postback effect. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer Mimeo.com Memphis TN 901.246-0159 _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
