[Catalyst] Catalyst application example

[John Wang]

Hi Karl,

Congrats, nice website. One comment. For me, there's some latency in
expanding the various records. There is a page request every time a record
is expanded and only one record can be expanded at a time. I'm not sure
where the delay is but one thing you might be interested in would be sending
all the detailed data in the page and then toggling the visibility of the
detailed information using DHTML. That way expanding the detailed
information wouldn't require a HTTP request and the page would have a much
snappier feel. A bonus is that you would be able to have more than one
record's details viewable at a time.

Cheers,
John
