What do you think? >From a pragmatic point of view, absolutely. Especially for applications that need to work NOW and not in some distant future where IE decides to implement SVG as well ... But I still see things like dojo (and others) as an intermediate solution until IE implements SVG ... I still have hope ... The problem with all the Ajax toolkits is that they aren't designed to be compatible with each other and you are basically trapped in one solution. But thats with a lot of other technologies as well. A lot of real world applications already use that approach, like Google Maps, Microsoft Maps (forgot what that product was called), the Google Office suite (esp. the presentations and charting module). So, such an approach really works today.
