Mutter mutter "XMLHttp and XMLHttpRequest" grumble grumble

God I hate cross browser screwidness.

Just run across this one. I'm putting together a site for a client and including a little bit of AJAX goodness to make it a little snappier.

However I've discovered that IE6 and below does not support the XMLHttpRequest Javascript object, instead relying on the XMLHttp object it gets from ActiveX.

I'm now having to go through and recode... bleh.




I had a script with the same problem (I don't use AJAX much) but I found a solution for it that I posted here: http://www.freelancewebdeveloper.net.au/topic.php?id=131
