I ran into the same problem with the callback. I was looking up geocodes (lat/long) based on UK postcodes and european address strings. When processing many addresses I found I couldn't track which geocode result belonged to which address and so I put the geocode lookup in the CMS so that the Content Manager just set one at a time as new records were added to the DB. Thats why they appear hard coded, the geocode is precalculated in the CMS and stored in the DB. I tried wrapping the AJAX call in JQuery's excellent callback structure so that the next record is only processed when the current result has been returned but the GreenAddICT site was so busy with JS by then that firebug was refusing to debug it and I ran out of time to fix the problem. Sorry I couldn't be more help, George -- George Cole fireAnt Web Design http://www.fireantstudios.co.uk
