[thelist] PHP, ASP.net, AJAX

[Kevin Timmins]

Hi Barry,
Thanks for your reply, yes that does help thanks, least I don't have to 
learn a different server side language.
Does this kind of interface slow down websites much? mind you it will just 
be one static page that updates small segments of itself right?
I am only just discovering AJAX and JavaScript today.
Thanks again
Kipper
