well Bill, i bet you could do that with a page refresh which is probly not
what your looking for. Another way would be to maybe have a popup window
which you use as your "communication device". What you do is when you need
to move an item from one list box to another, you move it on the form w/
javascript, and then you refresh the popup window with some searach arg
parameters like...
www.myserver.com/mytaf.taf?move=3&<@userreferanceargument>
the popup would refresh, sending a signal to the server of whats taking
place. Problem is someone could close the window but you might be able to
test for that and popup a new one in its place when its time to communicate.
