Note that there are limitations on being able to go at another domain.  Or
maybe better put is that I don't believe you can execute an AJAX request
to
a server other than the one you came from because of security concerns.
Can
anybody confirm that?  I ran into this while doing XSLT processing
(nothing
to do with AJAX but doing a similar concept in trying to consume a
resource
on another server).

Yup, this is correct.  In fact, you can't even specify the URI portion of
the URL.  You can theoretically get around this by using a proxy server,
although I haven't tried it.

Note that in my open source framework (AIRPort) I use HTML as my transport
protocol.  Each span in my overall page (the "terminal") has a number of
panes ("gates" - yeah, I know, the terminology is cutesy, but it's easy to
remember) and each gate is loaded from a different JSP page.  What's nice
about this technique is that I can debug the individual JSP pages outside of
the Ajax framework and then just plug them in.
