Hmmm.... On http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_ajax_xmlhttprequest.asp it says that it is the way to make am AJAX request. The problem - as always - is that there are 2 possible ways depending on which browser is being used (FF or IE).
I must admit: I am having some trouble reproducing the error right this instant - everything is fine. But that's what it was before. It's hard that it just doesn't appear each time, that makes it harder to track it down. Maybe you are right. I can remember that issue being mentioned within the Javascript console of Firefox, also - I guess. So, if Firebug only reproduces the messages of the JavaScript console, then indeed it shouldn't be a Firebug issue. What amazes me is that I never had that issue before, it kind of "suddenly" arose. On my website post, a visitor made a comment that he changed the order of this AJAX request within the createAJAX function of tw-sack.js to first check for Firefox and then for IE, and that it helped preventing the error. I am still not convinced to believe that the problem lies within a JavaScript code that is so heavily used. But maybe I will address the author of that JavaScript. Thanks jjb, I will try to keep you updated here.
