XmlHttpRequest now a W3C standard

Contrary to what I said in my previous post, XmlHttp is now a W3C standard (draft):
http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/

(found via Christian Wenz, who is the author of an excellent book on Atlas)

On a side note, it's also natively implemented in IE7 which means no more ActiveX.

It hasn't been ratified yet so it's not a standard.

Robert: that's why I mentioned that it's a draft.

That's why Ihave been using XMLHTTP since it was made available. It works, it's straght out useable and it looked like a good bet for a standard.

MSXML objects are very user friendly unlike th eearly days of "ADO".
