Spry is a JavaScript-based framework that enables the rapid development of Ajax-powered web pages. Not a JavaScript guru? No problem. Spry was designed to feel like an extension of HTML and CSS, so anyone with basic web-production skills can create next-generation web experiences by adding the power of Ajax to their pages.
Spry can be used with any server-side technology (ColdFusion, PHP, ASP.Net etc.). By building the front-end of your web application with Spry you enable a more efficient designer-developer workflow by keeping UI separated from back-end application logic.

"Whilst SQL Server 2000 has fixed database roles such as db_datareader and db_datawriter that allow a user read or write access respectively to all the table is a database, no such role exists for the execution of stored procedures (a db_executor role if you will). This article describes how to grant execute permission to all stored procedures in a database to a specific user or role in both SQL2000 and SQL2005."
