Aha, but won't work so well with JSON response, right?
I do check XHR in my PHP script and I thought it would work doing
something like this:
$xhr=$_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']=='XMLHttpRequest';
if(!$xhr)
{
print("<textarea>".$json."</textarea>");
}
else
{
print($json);
}
That way I thought that if I choose to upload a file it would use the !
$xhr alternative and if I just edit eg image title, the other.
