SDO and AJAX

Hi.

Last night think in bed wondering how I could develop generic tool to serve XML pages from WebSpeed. Then it dawned on me that Smart Data Object (SDO) are made up of two parts, a client-side and a server-side and information is transfered by temp-tables (I know that there is more to it than just TT).

So what I started to think was, it possible take an existing SDO (server-side) and the added an extra layer to convert the temp-table to XML (as supported in OE10). Then WebSpeed could deliver the XML to the Client browser and the using Javascript to process the XML in the Clients Browser (i.e. emulate the client-side of an SDO).

Most likely I have missed something completely obvious but it is just an idea.

It will be interesting to here views from others about this concept.

P.S. I know it is sad :blush: to think about Progress coding laying in bed next to my wife.
 
not a bad idea (even if it's quite sad)... take a look to what we did in that area: www.projapi.coma new demo using the last release will be online next week and it has the client side sdo and most of the other smart objects from adm2 implemented.--marian
