Completely and utterly wrong. Firstly there's no "AJAX extension" in any browser. AJAX is a markting term. Ignore it. IE implements XmlHTTPRequest with ActiveX. Obviously nobody but Microsoft is going to implement that. Any coder that does browser sniffing in JS doesn't know what the they're doing. Not saying that it's never happened, just that they haven't kept up with the times. There really isn't much browser-specific code in a good XmlHTTP script. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

DigiKam And Sony DSC-P10 Wont Talk
When I select my Sony DSC-P10 (PTP or Normal mode) in digiKam's Camera drop down I get this: "Failed to connect to camera. Please make sure its connected properly and turned on. Would you like to try again?" I'm reasonably sure that it's connected properly having followed my Sony manual instructions. The blue viewing screen shows USB Mode NORMAL or PTP(whichever I select in the setup menu) with the four red dots that quickly turn to white shortly after turning on the camera. DigiKam didn't autodetect my camera but I found it listed in the db file and selected it from the Add Camera list. I read all the related manuals and the set up info in all the "refered to" configuration files. Nothing works. I'm bewildered at how many configuration files for different programs that is required to set up digiKam. At least my scanner works as I'm able to scan from it and place the image in my Album->Pictures file. However, I'm not able to use the memory card reader to download images from the memory stick. I would like to use my Epson Stylus CX6400 memory card reader to download images from the camera but haven't seen any reference to it. I'm reasonably sure this is all some Debian setup issue but can't figure it out myself after reading manuals and all instructions in the various configuration files. I'm still a newbie with Debian and Linux in general and definately would appreciate any help getting my camera images downloaded. I didn't include any setup/configuration files as there are so many; please request what is pertinent and I'll transmit them.

Also, Konq has XMLHTTPRequest, and it works fine. Last I checked, the problem was in it's JS XML parser, which has bugs. But you can get content from a serverside script and drop it into an element with innerHTML just fine. Or get plain text and set it with createTextNode(). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In Google's defense, I've not been able to get decent Ajax (XmlHttpRequest) working under Konqueror, either. I don't know any Ajax-using site that supports Konqueror.
