Ajax should not be slapped onto a page to make it look pretty, there are certain ways Ajax functionality should be added to a page. For starters there shouldn't be a single character of in-line Javascript on a page. Behavior should be separated from the structure and obtrusive Javascript is bad. Using progressive enhancement should be encouraged, so that means building the site without any Javascript and then after the core functionality is working use unobtrusive Javascript to enhance the content. Having "Ajax" "Helpers" built into the framework will only encourage bad habits and bad coding. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org
