I helped with discussions of server design and implemented javascript libraries and demo applications - things like soap serialization/deserialization in JScript, buy/sell auctions, AIM clones, etc. Lots of fun.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure what you meant with "[...] should both update page two and show you visually that this happened".<BR/><BR/>When we were working the client-side of things, we eventually came to the conclusion that extending the markup language with trivial 'subcribe to foo and call this function' attributes on any element would be a simple and powerful way for developers to write apps. The WhatWG has recently defined exactly this kind of markup extension to HTML.
