I'm sure these happen. The question is whether their existence is sufficient grounds to impose additional burdens on other uses of XHR. But we always have to keep the current functionality. Whatever logic exists in today's implementations to handle calling either responseText or responseXML would still have to be there. I think we're talking about new functionality that the author would opt into. Turn on the "I only ever want this as an ArrayBuffer" flag and attempts to do responseText or responseXML would result in an error. I don't think that affects today's author, doe it? ----- ~Chris cmarrin@apple.comReceived on Wednesday, 27 October 2010 17:18:49 UTC
