IFrame vs ServerSide Proxy
Hi,
What is the advantage of using ServerSide Proxy over IFrame and vice-versa?
Also, what about in context of ExtJS?
Thanks,
P

The advantages and/or disadvantages depend a lot on what you are trying to acheive. There is really nothing that I can think of that would make one method or the other /inherently/ good or evil ;-)
There are implications on the way that javascript functionality can interact between elements when an iFrame is present, but that would only matter if you wanted to acheiev a particular outcome that might turn out problematic (i.e. run a javascript function in the iframe that calls on objects in the parent or vice versa)
Apart from that, the comments I made previously cover the conceptual differences - what may be considered an 'advantage' in one particular application mmay well be considered a disadvantage for another application.
