Re: AJAX... -- WEB400

I use live HTTP headers with firefox/mozilla.  Great tool.

AJAX does use standard scripts from a point of view.   See
my post previously on SSI vs. AJAX.

Brad,

One of the reasons I like using AJAX instead of standard
scripts is because 
I find it very easy to debug using Firebug in Firefox
browser.  It allows to 
see the request sent by the client as well as the
response sent by the 
iSeries server and the headers.  Have a look at the
following link from 
Sun's Sang Sing AJAX free online course for details.

So, do you return XML and then convert that to HTML?

Seems like extra work to me.  :)

Have you found any ways to debug AJAX such as view the
source returned on the page, etc?  IT stinks that you

can't

even save the page with the dynamic information inserted
and see the *ML that was sent back from the app.  That's
the main thing that's holding me back on implementing it
more.

I had a huge shopping application for a customer set up
with AJAX but decided to go back to standard scripts
because I was finding debugging a pain.  Not that I

insert

any bugs into code mind you.  :)
