I don't think you're "bypassing Lift." Lift is generating the XHTML page.
The fact that parts of the page are static content means that this part of

Hey Glenn,
Don't worry about being a novice - we've all been there!
What kind of external data did you want to get? If it's service based
e.g salesforce then you can do that with scala inside a lift app.
Describe what you want to do and we'll advise on the best course of
action :-)
Cheers

part...",
but it seems a simple, yet necessary use-case to be able to post to
any available
URL and receive a response within the lift framework. Particularly if
one is doing mashups, getting
and storing data, RSS and Atom
Glenn,
If you are posting to an external URL im not sure there is a good case
for using bind(...) as that binds served HTML with a server side
function to be executed upon form submission. If you want to post
directly to another URL that is not managed by lift, there is little
