I'm currently testing browser compatibility with IE7 for an app that I built initially for use with Firefox.

As a result, I have used many Firefox specific features and attributes that I ne...
I'm dabbling with a linguistics Javascript project. I'd like to build it using objects to represent Nouns and functions to store Verbs as this makes conceptualizing my project less difficult.

I've seen this on nerd dinner and other sites. On page load (in JavaScript, via the browser), an AJAX request will go out to get some data from the same server that rendered the initial page.

In theory it works fine, but sometimes there is a delay in the output, so if the function should return a "4", it returns a "1".
