<br>Isn't XMLHttpRequest what gmail uses for it's communications? </blockquote><div><br>
<br>
They do. It is however not easy to get into their JavaScript code ;)<br>
<br>
Which is btw an interesting aspect of programming in Ajax. Now it is
possible to hide well the data displayed on web sites and for instance
disable mass downloads by robots, etc, or stiealing valuable
information ;)<br>

Opera for a long tme missed proper support for <span style="font-size: larger;"><b>XMLHttpRequest
. I would believe it is working now properly with gmail. In general,
Opera is nice browser and they care a lot there to have it close
to well established standards.<br>
