  1. Re:Yay! One more buzzword!!! (nt) on COWS Ajax - Ajax Evolved · · Score: 1
    Before writing trashing comments on this toolkit, i thought i write some of my reasons to reject it. There are some fundamental problems with this toolkit.
    1. Server output have to be JS only! Imagine when the server is down, it returns 404 or something and the response won't be in JS format, so that will break the whole page because it throws syntax errors!
    2. Server response is limited to JS (or JSON)
    3. There are limitations to access already initialized JS variables from these newly added code through dynamic SCRIPT tag creation.
    4. Although cross-domain access is a welcome feature for good developers, it's a way to create mess on your site for bad developers.
    5. A lot of popup blockers or virus protection softwares block creating SCRIPT tags on the fly! So this whole thing would be completely broken in those cases.
