I believe it is true to say that a "conforming user agent" as defined by XMLHttpRequest-2 cannot also a "conforming user agent" as defined by XMLHttpRequest (not least because the introduction of CORS overrides the requirement to throw SECURITY_ERR at various points). What is the recommended way for code to discover to which version of the specification an implementation conforms? -- Stewart Brodie Software Engineer ANT Software Limited
