I'm not really sure where I said anything like that... could you point it
out?

I can tell you that I did write an application in the '99-2000 timeframe
as well that was definitely "Ajax-like"... most of the application was
client-side and loaded once initially, and requests after that were made
targetting a hidden frame.  The responses were XML, which were then parsed
and the UI updated based on that data.  The server never rendered anything
other than XML after that initial load.  I'm sure I described that
application somewhere.  Is that what your referring to perhaps?

In any case, that is in *no way* trying to lay claim to anything, other
than the fact that I was playing with these kinds of ideas years ago, as
were many other people.  Had I connected those ideas with clean products I
might now be famous :)  But I didn't.  I have no problem believing others
did even more advanced things than I did, even back then.
