Hello,

I was wondering what tools are available for doing History Management  
for AJAX intensive applications.

The following Google example shows what I’d like to have.

[http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/examples/kitchensink/](http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/examples/kitchensink/)

and here is the code:

[http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/1.4/com/google/gwt/user/client/History.html](http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/1.4/com/google/gwt/user/client/History.html)

Peter,

That’s great! Thank you, I don’t know how people got by until 5 days  
ago 🙂

I suspected the solution would be RSH but didn’t know enough RoR (and  
still don’t) to full integrate it in.

I tried out the example on the website however my app is using UJS (Low  
Pro) and it didn’t readily work. Any ideas?

Thanks.
