Good wishes. I hope it goes as well as possible. About Adam's question, hi Adam, I have not done anything since the synchronous-JAX code. I think it's all yours if you have some time. IPC is over my head, or at least I don't have a background utilizing it. But I have been following along interestedly with your discussions! Since iframes have come up recently, is there anything to be gained by talking about the two things in tandem? If you're considering doing some work on true AJAX, is there an opportunity for making some code do double duty and saving some work, by basing iframes on the same work as long as you're there? This would be if we wanted to switch the technique from the current (give the user a hyperlink to that content) to inline loading of what the iframe contains. I have just been reading around recently that iframes and AJAX are comparable, right? I have found pages that say things like: "There are basically 3 client side ways of including external content into a page ... a visible iframe ... a hidden iframe .... or VIA Ajax." And a stack overflow question, "Why AJAX over iframes?" albeit from 2012. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10656992/why-ajax-over-iframes thanks Kevin
