Yes, you should be able to fire the other requests. Maybe you could post a little code.

I'm sending an AJAX request using jQuery that could take a minute to complete. However, I also want to send other smaller ajax requests to the same host at the same time just after the first one starts. The problem is, the smaller requests block until the first one finishes. Is there a way to get around that? Shouldn't AJAX be asynchronous?
