yeah, it's messy. I do a lot of 
if ($('thisDiv')) { doSomethingtoIt($('thisDiv')); } 
now in my javascript, which gets me around javascript pooping out. But
your point is a good one. I also need to give a look-see at firebug, a
firefox extension for CSS/DOM/JS debugging. I've heard good things
about it.

couldn't agree more. AJAX can be a real time suck, but I'm still very
much behind an AJAX/browser-based solution. The benefits are big, and
it fits perfectly into the architecture that slim has setup for skins.
