You use AJAX yourself. Do you use it for every project? Would you recommend AJAX to newbies? When you do use AJAX, there is a slight difference in your app design then when you don't use AJAX. That's the way I see threads. It's not for every body nor for every project. But it would be great if it's there when the need/requirement arises. And yes, coldfusion should be phased out long ago... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
