Yep, generally in downlevel clients when I've done this, I've always prepopulated 5 or 10 or so (depending on the situation and how many are likely to be added) on the server, and called back with a submission to add another 10. This runs into the problem though of needing to know that you have a downlevel client and not a WF2 one, or a script supported legacy. (previously I had the "add" button there always but overridden with the client behaviour for add 1 client side, rather than add 5 server - I can't see how WF2 solves this.) > this might > benefit a legacy browser like IE which would be slow to generate 20 or > 30 rows in the client. Surprising, I've never seen this, indeed it's generally been faster than other UA's - it does depend on your methods of creation of course. Jim.
