| 22:56 | <snek> | does anyone here know what method "ajax" style requests used to actually parse the xml? was DOMParser available back then? |
| 22:56 | <snek> | my understanding is this was preferable because the JSON api didn't exist yet(?) |
| 23:01 | <ljharb> | i think it might have been yeah |
| 23:02 | <snek> | its hard to search cuz so much "ajax" stuff is just jquery's json api now 😔 |
| 23:04 | <snek> | oh XMLHttpRequest has responseXML |
| 23:04 | <snek> | that makes sense |
