indeed we all should be looking optimistic for PHP and xmlHttpRefresh huh?

thanks for bringing all this to our attention, it appears now that xmlHttpRefresh is here to stay?

now to digest all this...

or do you mean XmlHttpRequest :)

well it comes with a tradeoff: you get more dynamic-feeling websites but you also can't bookmark the links within those websites :P

Well, I guess you can’t bookmark a special state when you’re using let’s say some book-keeping software .. I mean open it, work for some time, then close it and then re-open and navigate to the needed place by using a bookmark. :)
In my opinion, the JPspan, XUL, etc stuff is mainly for administrational purposes, not for replacing web in general.

Ah that's just an implementation detail ;) Interestingly solving it (partially) is a chapter of Dive into Python.
