Time to Vote – Ajax Feature Wish List

$

0

What would you like to see in the next generation of browsers? Can you help to make the web a slightly better place than where it is today?

Various people from the Ajax community have put together a good list of feature requests (a total of over 40), collected at OpenAjax Runtime Task Force . Now it is time for everyone to cast your vote!

Voting is easy. Just sign up at OpenAjax Wiki . Then go to
the voting page , select the priority number from a dropdown box for features that you care. -That’s it. Your results will be calculated and displayed in immediately. Once you select a priority item from the dropdown box, your selection is immediately sent to the server and recorded int the database. A nice use case of the asynchronous feature of Ajax. Of course, you can always come back and make changes. (Thanks Jon for making the voting process really easy).

At the moment of this writing, a few people have casted their votes. The current result is below
