XPATH is too slow for me, I really gave it a fair try in my AJAX applications.
JSON is not just string manipulation, it is a subset of the literal object notation of JavaScript. I think JSON doesn't make very much sense in other programming languages, but hey we're talking JavaScript now.
I think this is a really great and fast way to get data from the server:
var responseDataObject = eval(xmlHttp.responseText);
Parsing XML in JavaScript is not very efficient, you better use some JSON techniques.
It's more elegant to get XML from the server, but AJAX is here to make the user experience better, so lets keep things up to speed in our AJAX applications.
Well, simply using javascript in HTML doesn't make it DHTML. DHTML is the dynamically adding/changing HTML. A simple onclick="alert('foo')" is not DHTML.
I agree DHTML is HTML and javascript. But there's a little more needed than JUST HTML and javascript, to make it DHTML.

Where I work software is created only (99%) by the ideas of marketers...
If you can make a feature that makes money, just do it! (And if you can get a customer to pay for all the develop time of that feature, then you're a genius;))
Executing code within Word documents or email seems insane from our perspective, but it's a _really_ awsome feature you can sell. So...
... shutup and go make that feature!
PS: I worked for another company that was driven by technologie instead of marketers, it was a programmers heaven... but I went broke. (Geez, how come?)

I think it's funny, because it happens very often...
Developers vs Rest-of-company:
Pre-release-phase: Rest-of-company : Come on, we _need_ SP2 now! Developers : But it isn't finished yet... Rest-of-company : If we don't get it NOW, we will... (Fill in some very good reason, like getting fired;)) Developers : Oke, but there are too many problems with SP2... Rest-of-company : We'll release some hotfixes, just give it to us _NOW_! Developers : *shrugs* Oh well... Just don't forget we warned you guys...
Post-release-phase: Rest-of-company : WHOA, There is a problem with xxx. How is that possible? Developers : Well, SP2 just isn't quite finished yet... Rest-of-company : Not finished? What the f**k?! Developers : We told you so, before the release, but... Rest-of-company : I don't want to hear that, just go and work on the hotfix... Developers : *shrugs* Oh well...

Hell no!
I'm using AJAX already for ages, I'm a _real_ AJAX Expert...
Hmmm oke, I guess you're right...

I don't see any XML parsing in this sample...
function updatePage() {
if (xmlHttp.readyState == 4) {
var response = xmlHttp.responseText;
document.getElementById("zipCode").value = response;
}
}
I think the "xmlHttp.responseText" is just a plain string, not XML.

DHTML is not "just Javascript and HTML", DHTML is about creating and modifying HTML dynamically.
