what kind of features are you looking for in these javascript libraries ? I see sarissa is just the XMLHttpRequest method tied to writing the guts of DOM objects, and then some more elaborate DOM inspection methods that seem less useful.
it seems to me that the "server-neutral" javascript part of AJAX is nothing more than a single function to connect an XMLHttpRequest and feed it to a callback function, and perhaps a couple of generic callback functions, i.e. "execute the javascript returned" and "write the HTML returned into this DOM element". everything else is specific to a particular application and/or server side approach. I went and took the single connection function from the Sajax demo and built a bunch of stuff off of that... once you can connect and get data, document.getElementById('foo').innerHTML = <blah> can draw anything anywhere you want. >> I was meaning to look into Sarissa (http://sarissa.sourceforge.net/doc/) >> which >> was mentioned somewhere at some point fairly recently.
