As I think that I mentioned before, the current draft of DNS-over-HTTP is poorly suited for JavaScript. Building and parsing DNS binary messages in JavaScript seems like a really hard way to get at the few tidbits of information that you actually want. OTOH, I am (obviously) not a web developer, so perhaps I overestimate the difficulty in working with DNS binary-format. Maybe it's a relatively compact set of JavaScript functions that can be used? Maybe I just found a project for the IETF Hackathon? Hm... :) Cheers, -- Shane
