I'm not following on what you are trying to do here. Can you be a
little more descriptive on your problem, other than not wanting to
write your own datastore? How are you wanting to get the data?
ItemFile*Store doesn't require the end point be an actual file, it
could just as readily be a service, such as a PHP script or a servlet.
The only thing ItemFile*Store requires is the format of the returned
data match its expectations. There are many other datastores
available in dojox as well, such as QueryReadStore, which expects to
talk to a back end service (which is mimic'ed in a simple php file for
testing purposes). So, what exactly are you trying to do and what do
you want your data source to be?
