Brian,

For XHR requests where I'm retrieving data from the server, I'm just
spitting back JavaScript which gets executed upon retrieval. For data which
gets sent to the server, I'm just using POST key/value pairs, per usual.

This is such inconsistent behavior and that's what's killing me. Sometimes
if you click on a patient, their information won't come up at all -- during
these times I've noticed that no request is being made to the server at all.
I made sure to add a random URI to my request URL to avoid any sort of
caching.

Other times when I submit a form, again, the request just won't be made to
the server. I can't figure out what's causing these random scenarios where
no request is being made at all to the server. I can't debug it on the
iPhone side to see if any javascript is even being executed or what. On the
server-side, I just see nothing on the access logs.

Again this isn't all the time, it's random. If you visit the sites (both SSL
and non-SSL) in a desktop browser like safari or firefox, there won't be any
issues. The application is solid. As soon as you bring it to the iPhone, all
the oddities begin to ensue. I wish I could figure out how to make it more
consistent and less flaky.
