I know there is a rich history of challenges implementing any kind of
JavaScript interpretation using Mechanize or any other web
scripting/automation utility, but I was wondering if anyone has tried to
focus on "Mechanizing" AJAX?

I realize this would take at least some degree of JavaScript interpretation
and most likely some kind of internal DOM representation to maintain the
state of the page, and that it's probably extraordinarily challenging.
Nonetheless, with the increasing popularity of AJAX, it seems like it
eventually needs to be done.  I'm watching more and more of the sites I've
written automation for slowly migrate to AJAX and it's getting increasingly
difficult to work around these designs.

I just wanted to get a handle on where other folks were at before I start
banging my head against the wall to come up with a solution.  :-)

Thanks,
Chris
