Most of the examples run off of XmlHttpRequest, but I've done some work with &lt;CF_SRS&gt; which uses iFrames for communication. <br /><br />Rob's article is a good read to get to know the differences of each. <blockquote><a href="http://ajax.sys-con.com/read/188390.htm">Ajax: XMLHttpRequest Vs. iFrames</a> ?
