At the risk of spawning a subthread, I find myself using a combination of asp and asmx, meaning, I am using Javascript AND the web forms. Why? It made simple dialogs easier. Is that some kind of heresy? Maybe, but I find I quite like Javascript for light tasks doing mundane things like working with simple select/option dialogs. I am probably missing the point because I am used to Javascript and accept it as a convenience. My asmx pages with their combinations of HTML, web form controls, C# and Javascript would likely make an MS engineer chuck, but I'm not certified so I'm ok, and well, it works and the browser isn't complaining. Certifiable, maybe. JavaScript isn't evil; it's just twisted. len From: Dare Obasanjo [mailto:dareo@m...] The AJAX hype is in direct contrast to your above statement. I wasn't making a value judgement about Javascript, I was pointing out that developers have begun to sing its praises now that it is widely supported in their favorite browsers and companies they look up to are using it. This does nothing to change the numerous problems that have been documented ad nauseum about the problems with building websites primarily with Javascript for site navigation and interaction.
