I really don't think that ISC will have turned off the JVM hyperevent
- it wil break to much code already out there

Suspect that they will make it an optional attribute somewhere
<csp:object useXMLHTTP=1

or some such construct - if it's not there use JVM if it is use
XMLHTTP

====
My own view is that it is a welcome replacement for having to dl and
install a JVM

But it still is browser dependent - useable if you have control over
the browsers - intranet - but not ready for public internet prime time
too many browsers not supporting it *yet*

It's the old probem - you can make use of whizzy features but the more
you do the more you restrict the audience

for my own part I am using simple Javascript with very simple DOM
fiddling
this works on 98% (I believe) of browsers - but even then it wil fail
if the user has turned off JavaScript
But this is reasonable - so many public sites use JS that I think it's
OK

XMLHTTP - don't work on Mac's a all, flakey on anything less than the
latest Moz - too large a percentage audience
or so my research indicates
