Re: [Flashcoders] Fjax... does this seem ridiculous to anyone else?
It can do limited cross domain xml loading (obeying crossdomain.xml policy files of course), unlike the JavaScript XmlHttpRequest object. So if nothing else, it could work as a client side proxy, for those that can't run server side proxies, or just want less traffic to run through their server.

Re: [Flashcoders] Fjax... does this seem ridiculous to anyone else?
'Fjax just uses Flash to handle XML. Why? Because it's so darn good at it.' LOL, yeah right! It's ridiculous. Browser issues are nullified by libraries like dojo, prototype, et al. An interesting use of flash and js combined is the storage mechanism in the dojo toolkit: http://codinginparadise.org/projects/dojo_storage/release/dojo/tests/storage/test_storage.html# Regards, Michael On 6/23/06, Ville Walveranta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Yes.. why not use remoting instead?

Re: [Flashcoders] Fjax... does this seem ridiculous to anyone else?
Of course I am not an ajax programmer, but if its as hard as they say, and if it makes it easier for ajax programmers to code then why not? Because it makes your web site dependant on the Flash plugin when it doesn't need to be. You're trading the effort of browser compatibility for the effort of Flash versioning, which are about equal to begin with. But browser compatibility doesn't require VBScript. :-P ryanm ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

So on my machine all I get from that link other than the top banner in either FF or IE is: "Error parsing XML Data" First time that's happened. WTH?

Re: [Flashcoders] Fjax... does this seem ridiculous to anyone else?
"Error parsing XML data" .. LOL! The Digg Effect strikes again. Anyway, I don't think it's hard to use conditional branching in your Javascript to account for browser differences, but I think FJAX is a neat idea anyway.
