I recommend reading the FAQ first.

A rough cut of a custom build tool with a automatic dependency
resolution and a minification option is up.

There is lots of broken stuff on the alpha site but if there is any
feedback about the custom build tool please speak up.
I'm moving information from the Fork v0.1 site into the Fork v0.2 site

A couple months holiday are over and I've resolved to making the next
version of Fork my side-project priority. Fork v0.2 is hopefully not
in the too distant future.

Part of the reason Fork hasn't been updated since more than two years
ago is it just keeps working for me. I don't encounter bugs that need

Peter-Paul Koch (aka PPK = the guy behind quirksmode.org) does try to
stay current on cross-browser issues. He doesn't know everything, but
it's probably worth letting him know if the method you find best for
creating XML HTTP request objects differs from his. (granted, if you
posted on c.l.j he ought to be checking that newsgroup at least once

I looked very briefly, on line 149 you can see he tries them in order
starting from index zero. So that means he would be using
XMLHttpRequest in IE7.
That wouldn't mean he knows everything.
I looked into this stuff and cannot remember off the top of my head. I
did ask about the differences on comp.lang.javascript

Also, by sheer coincidence, I was playing with Yahoo's new mail today,
which is full of fancy Ajax scripting, and for no reason, IE7 froze on
me. I had to close the browser and restart. I don't know if that's at

Personally, I have not had any reported problems using XMLHttpRequest
with IE7 with tens of thousands users. There doesn't seem to be a
particular test case mentioned that can reproduce the problem on
demand. That said, I don't see a real problem checking for the ActiveX
object first. I will keep this in mind for the next version of Fork.

xmlHttpRequest vs Microsoft.XMLHTTP Active X

stern...@hotmail.com (Stern) — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 18:59:44 UT

This article (and the comments) suggest that -- for IE7 -- it's better
to use Microsoft.XMLHTTP over XMLhttpRequest:

Now ForkJavascript includes these lines:

FORK.Ajax.newXMLHttpRequest = function() {

I have essentially kept what I posted on clj, though I've extended it
so that a global supported event features list is created that can be
used to test if a particular feature can be used later.

I'm currently using it as follows (excuse wrapping, this is straight
from the code):

Hi Rob,
[snip]
It is generous of you to refer to that as "documentation".
The reason the documentation is not written properly is I'm not sure
what to do about the drag-drop library. I don't really like how the
code is arranged aesthetically (the feature testing especially.) It
does work well and can be used to build very fast interfaces. I'm
