Thanks ...

My HTML contains elements like this, because it uses inlines from django-basic-apps. <inline type="myapp.mymodel" id="4" /> I'm trying to use tinymce to insert one of these into the DOM. On the frontend of the site, these are processed into good code. In tinyMCE I've added the config: extend_valid_elements: 'inline[id|ids|type|filte...
Why did the creators of the HTML DOM and/or Javascript decide to disallow cross-domain requests? I can see some very small security benefits of disallowing it but in the long run it seems to be an attempt at making Javascript injection attacks have less power. That is all moot anyway with JSONP, it just means that the javascript code is...
Part One: I'm trying to figure out how to use the DOM and Javascript to create an array containing the links in multiple lists. The problem is I need each UL to have a unique array containing the links; the only unique ID I am able to use in this case is the name value in the link tags. I will not be able to add anything else to the mark...

I've read that javascript gets significant performance benefits from modifying off-dom. Earlier today, I was reading the clone documentation: "Note that when using the .clone() method, we can modify the cloned elements or their contents before (re-)inserting them into the document." Is the implication then that if I have 1,...
