Thanks for bringing this down to the essentials, at last.
Although we couldn't finally clarify this last issue, it was a very 
helpful discussion for me. I could successfully redesign the whole 
application and got rid of XMLHttpRequest, which doesn't work in limited 
IE6. That's what I wanted to achieve.

Thanks to all.
