Very noble! But please dont set up a tomcat just because of me, I would 
have a bad guilt other people spent there time solving my problems.

Not really needed now, however I dont want to stop you if you planed to 
test with it.

The reason why it timed out was, that when the server was asked it threw 
a servlet exception which was not shown, since the data is used 
internally by DynApi and not displayed in browser, so nobody could see 
the "Servlet-Exception"...
It would be maybe better to catch Exceptions and write it into the 
logger - should I add this?

The reason itself was that the servlet had to be registered with 
SERVICE.soda, I called it different like xyz.soda so it did not work at 
all of course. It really works  - great!

Thanks for all your help and patience. It makes me feel so happy that I 
now can start my work :-)

Thanks a lot, lg Clemens

PS: I have one question about licensing.
I want to use DynApi in an half/half project: Code that stands under GPL 
may use it for free but others should pay a small fee. Is this O.K. with 
dynapi (not only licensing - but aren't developers angry about that?).
What I want to do should be quite a small breakthrough in client/server 
programming, however I may not tell more :-(

Of course I am willed to help dynapi te become even better, fix bugs 
etc. For now I am not very happy with javascript because I come from the 
java-world but after some time JS should be quite normal for me.
E.G. I plan to create a table-widget (table with add, get, remove, ....) 
which I also of course plan to contribute back.
The issue with IOElement and opera, konqueror is also in my interrest to 
be solved, I just say this to tell you that I also want to give 
something back and not only want to use dynapi code. It will be a 
library but not a rival - it has a quite diffenet goal.
I thought it would be better to ask before coding instead to make 
developers angry.
Do you think this would be o.k?
