[Helma-user] Ajax

[Kevin Ethridge]

Chris,
Thanks for pointing out the code. I was just trying to get a feel for  
how you guys
coding ajax in your apps. I was just trying to find some examples  
what would be
considered, "good coding style" for a helma app.
I appreciate your time and the feedback.

Kevin
