My wrapper: ajax = function(url, cb) { xhr =...

Is there a way to clear out the responseText of an XHR object without destroying the XHR object? I need to keep a persistent connection open to a web server to feed live data to a browser. The problem is, there is a relatively large amount of data coming through (several hundred K per second constantly), so memory usage is a big problem...

I am writing a FireFox add-on that displays webpages from my server as control and info panels. These panels were written and work in regular URLs, but when I try to access them through a custom protocol (so it's like about:, just myplugin:settings) every XMLHttpRequest returns blank as if I was doing XSS stuff. I know the data's getti...
Hello, I am trying to append a p element from the responseText of an Ajax request. Before appending, I would like to see if the responseText already exists in the parent div element text, and not add it if that is the case.

It turned out that ther...

What I'd like to do is change the style of the responseText to red if the result is the pharase, "NOT FOUND". Otherwise the text will be black. Here is the scr...

It's currently displaying the correct responseText; I just want to change the color when necessary. Here is my current Ajax: function newXMLHt...
