Yes, finally they implemented that useful feature, something I already
implemented 4 years ago in my XML/XSLT web framework written in ASP/VB6.

For those not knowing what Client Callback means see:

Well we can do it, and as I've done back them we can get it without
needing XMLHTTP: we can just use a hidden IFRAME a secondary form and
some inter-frame javascripting, not very pretty, but effective and able
to run in any modern browser.

Im my previous framework, besides on-demand expanding tree-views I've
built paged-combo-boxes and on-the-fly lookup-filled controls (the user
filled a key value in one input box, and a server-lookup brought
dependent values). 

So we can do a lot better in that area...

Any volunteers? Currently I can help only with advice/guidance, because
I'm very busy with mbas.

Cheers,
