XML and Postback issue

[Erik Lautier]

Hi,

I've got a dynamically generated dropdownlist of sizes, which, when
selected, shows current inventory for that size. I originally just
called to the server when the size was changed to display inventory,
but I wanted it to happen more seamlessly, so I wrote the data to an
XML file when the overall product page was visited and accessed it
that way...the problem is that it's still posting back to get the XML
data. What's I'm looking for is a way to do this without calling back
to the server at all. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Erik

You could convert it to a client side data island and access the data
locally
