Advanced Requests and Responses in Ajax
An anonymous reader writes "The Web is no longer a place where simple applications are tolerated; 'users have become more advanced, customers expect robustness and advanced error reporting, and managers are fired because an application goes down 1 percent of the time.

We don't have anything special to say. But now instead of looking for a `Back' button, you may drag-n-drop our whole corporate site directly to your Recycled Bin!
