We no longer get an endless loop when an Ajax block errors out, but it still looks pretty bad. See the attached screenshot. Because the file "blocktype.ajax.php" doesn't have the "JSON" header at its top, when it errors out, Mahara tries to print the full error page with the navigation headers and the message "Mahara: Site unavailable", and then ajaxblocks.js tries to display it in the little iframe reserved for that block. This looks confusing to the user, and it can spill over out of that block's space and cover up adjacent blocks. It would be better if we printed something that more obviously indicates that just this one block is broken, and that doesn't break the display of other blocks.
