The biggest problem I have with using Zones for dynamic combo boxes is
that the browser back button causes the whole thing to fail from a user
perspective.

Tapestry doesn't solve this out of the box - which is rather
disappointing.* Especially when it is advertised how easy AJAX is to use
with Tapestry.

I found it all to frustrating and gave up and returned to using some
Javascript to submit a form on combobox select to do the dynamics. Slow
- but at least it works.

* of course, I'm always happy to have any error in my thinking pointed
out, but from an earlier question I asked on this list it appears that
this is a known issue with AJAX and the only way around it is to use
third-party hacks.
