That sounds much more professional. I would love to see some example code to
help me eliminate my natural anti-JavaScript prejudice. If it could actually be
as flexible and professional as server-side data filtering, I would definitely
be interested in learning more.
Of course, I would never suggest replacing server-side data filtering, but I
wouldn't mind saving that little bit of extra HTTP traffic for the legitimate
users.
Show me the code! :-)
