Hi All:
I have recently (with the invaluable help of this newsgroup) learned how
to provide dynamic html using client-side Javascript. I have a happy and
excited customer. Well, I'm happy that he's happy, but his excitement
has got me a bit alarmed.
Here's what I've done:
Provided an interface to a search engine in which the onchange event in
a select list element generates between 7 and 13 additional elements
depending on the option chosen.
Here's what the customer *now* wants to do:
Generate between 200 and 350 elements. Furthermore, the logic is going
to be more complex.
I would be happy to make that happen, however here's my concern: I'm
already doing this from the server side, using CGI. I wonder what is
going to happen when we put that degree of "work" on the client browser.
I would welcome comments, caveats, or pointers to documentation and
discussions on this subject.
Thanks again folks. You've been great!
Tim Johnson
