Ajax Sucks Most of the Time

Vo0k writes "It seems that everyone is excited with what AJAX promises, and only few look at what it breaks as well. The article at Usability Views offers a critical view at the new Microsoft technology, pointing out some problems it creates, like breaking bookmarking, making the 'back' button useless, problems with printing, accessiblity and more. The single-sided view from the article provides a good counter-balance for all the craze."

    Ajax sucks MOST of the time. Not always.

    i agree, when you don't want something to act like a webpage. why is that an impossible concept, making a broswer stop working like a browser? you can't imagine a situation where that wouldn't be ok, even preferable? well you did... with your last statement, so you contradict yourself
