Getting things to work across browsers can be a headache.

Start with the basic assumption that only a browser that groks the XMLHTTPRequest object is a candidate for AJAX technology deployment. The subset of those browsers is already very far down the path of eliminating or minimizing cross-browser problems. The problems arise because of the necessity most of us as Web developers feel we have to drag along the pre-modern browsers. If you focus only on the most recent generation of browsers, the cross- browser problems are becoming fewer and fewer, and libraries and functions exist to abstract away from those pretty easily.

This is true. I was just writing something similar to your response to Chipp. If you dive into this I would be interested to hear your experience with it. My experience with testing apps running inside a browser in the past has been less than pleasant. A really good library for interacting with the DOM that has support for drag/drop and other interface niceties is a must if you are going to get into browser based web apps.
