Not sure on the hardcore technical level ruling but... XMLhttpRequest works for FireFox on Mac... so i'm inclided to say nup... but...i am often wrong...(just killing time until the feds arrive). Also, what burns my ass is I and most others on here probably, have been playing in the realms of DHTML for quite some time and yet we were always scorned and hissed at when mentioning its existance... oh but when google uses a flavour of it ...well then its a nice thing now... SHEEP! baaaa.baaaaa...baaaa...google worshippererers.... (Note: thats to any who suddenly become a convert..to those who had pre-luv for Javascript/XMLHttpReq... luv to you). -- Regards, Scott Barnes http://www.mossyblog.com --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Aussie Macromedia Developers: http://lists.daemon.com.au/
