No, no no. Theories and laws are totally separate. The existance of more proof will not elevate evolution from a theory to a law. Nothing will make the theory of evolution into the law of evolution. However, that does not in any way discount the importance or truth of evolution. It's just creationist crap that they spew to people who don't understand science.
The postulation of theories is the end goal of scientific research. To say that evolution is 'just a theory' is actually a compliment to evolution.
