-------------------------------------

Did I forget to mention that we don't have to modify forms file. Its what they call Unobtrusive scripting. If Javascript is not loaded or supported, forms work like conventional Ofbiz forms.

Good job, Anil!

With the various ways of implementing this and the various controls one may want to have over the async stuff, it seems that there should be some additional elements and attributes regarding this kind of control in the form definition.

True, At least having Id attribute on form fields will make life lot easy.

Hi

When ever I'm typing http://localhost:8080/ecommerce/control/main I'm
getting this error "

(Sourced file:
component://ecommerce/webapp/ecommerce/WEB-INF/actions/cart/showpromotext.bsh
: Method Invocation ProductPromoWorker.getStoreProductPromos)))) (Error

This could be a tremendous enhancement for end-user. Why not use it, what does it need more ? Id attribute on form fields ?
