Excellent stuff! Theres me thinking I was the only one using it
commercially.

Still trying to get my head around how the CommonJS stuff works, on first
look it seems to not want you to modify any of the Native objects which
would be a pain, no .each() etc. available without some hoop jumping. We
could end up lots of a lovely modules that all use different frameworks
which could really be a bind and lead to bloat. That or we end up with a
unified version (which I guess is what CommonJS is about but theres no
mention of a spec as yet) which would seem sensible but a sticky problem to
start as it will be a mind field of X does it like this, Y does it like that
style wars.

In our ASP code we've been using Response.Write's to push stuff to the
response stream but after finding Jack and JSON Template I'm now thinking of
creating a new code of our code that tries to emulate this somewhat with a
final Response.Write at the end of the script. Also had an idea to create a
XML Document for each page which could be loaded from a static (or multiple
statics) and then you could do Element goodness with server-side before you
write it down to the Response Stream, this would give client-side coders a
leg up on how to do Server-Side as most of the DOM functions would be the
same. Is that an insane idea? I'm still pondering it :)

Believe it or not the XML manipulation stuff is pretty damn fast on ASP (MS
got the guy who wrote the MS DOM stuff in for the re-write of their .net
implementation as their initial version was massively slower than the old
COM version). All the talk of ASP being slow tends to be based on old
articles from 10 years ago. On modern machines in the real world its
fantastically fast and really, really good fun to code with :)
