Thanks, Rey. Can you forgive a couple of old-timers for getting cantankerous
once in a while? I'm afraid it comes with the territory.
One thing is for sure: If somebody disagrees with me a lot, it means I
probably have something to learn from them. So Pops, no harm, no foul, still
friends, OK?
I'm not offended to hear about memory leaks, my goodness, that's something I
need to fix! I've been meaning to update that JSONP plugin for a long time
anyway. Probably do the hidden iframe like somebody recommended in the
comments, and also make that silly timestamped URL optional. I took the
timestamp out of the JSONP code I use at Zvents because it wreaks havoc with
the server caching.
Talk with y'all later,
-Mike
