The AJAX part itself is completely Tapestry-unrelated and there are many examples in the Internet, maybe even in this mailing list archives. I answered something similar yesterday. The AJAX Prototype documentation is here: http://api.prototypejs.org/ajax/Ajax/Request/. > Example silly > questions: does my field have to be in a Zone? No, as long as you write your own JavaScript code to do and handle an AJAX request and then update the page DOM. > Also, would the % value updated by my process just be held in a @Persist > field? Absolutely no. Just get the % value when handling the request. You don't even need a field for that. -- Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo Independent Java, Apache Tapestry 5 and Hibernate consultant, developer, and instructor Owner, Ars Machina Tecnologia da Informação Ltda. http://www.arsmachina.com.br --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tapestry.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tapestry.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tapestry.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tapestry.apache.org
