As noted in Jonathan&#8217;s post, using the XmlHttpRequest object isn&#8217;t new&#8230;it has been available in Internet Explorer for a long time, certainly since late 1999\/2000.  Indeed, it is only now that other browsers are appearing on the scene and more of us find ourselves with always-on Internet connections that AJAX comes of age.  Like Jonathan, I&#8217;m looking forward to getting my hands dirty with it, very soon.  There&#8217;s more about AJAX-based applications over <a href=\"http:\/\/weblogs.asp.net\/scottgu\/archive\/2005\/06\/28\/416185.aspx\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I also found a link to <a href=\"http:\/\/193.151.73.87\/games\/lemmings\/index.html\">DHTML Lemmings<\/a> in Jonathan&#8217;s post&#8230;uh oh, I can see hours of my time going out the door&#8230;I overplayed Lemmings when I had it for my <a href=\"http:\/\/pages.zoom.co.uk\/acorn.computer\/archimedes.html\">Archimedes <\/a>during the late 80s and early 90s.  Ok, ok, Jonathan&#8217;s post title did mention it too, but I didn&#8217;t think the game would be this realistic.  <\/p>\n<p>Move over Patience and Solitaire, your days are numbered.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"unlucky for some\" vspace=\"8\" hspace=\"8\" border=\"2\"  src=\"http:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/wp-images\/July2005\/lemmings.gif\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An excellent example of DHTML&#8217;s power&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-109","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=109"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/109\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.craigmurphy.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
