Thanks for bringing this one to our attention, Geoff. I was vaguely aware of the existence of this approach but this article made it much clearer and more coherent.

I know JavaScript at least as well as I know Transcript, probably better. But the absence of decent IDEs for graphical development, the necessity of relying pretty much on browser-based UI componentry (there was a way at one point to use Java Swing classes in Web pages with JS calls but I think that relied on Netscape's LiveConnect technology and I don't think that's survived.) So how you can create a "rich" UI in a Web page using this Ajax approach remains problematic, I think.
