COWS AJAX Compatibility Test v5.0

This is a proof of concept example. Although you are connected to cows-ajax.sourceforge.net, the application is able to contact buttercup.spellingcow.com, query the server, and interact with the data from the server response.

Thank you for testing browser compatiblity for this web service architecture. Changeable Origin Web Services (COWS) AJAX is a new architecture that I'm hopeful can accomplish things that traditional AJAX via xmlhttprequest or iframes cannot. There are several advantages, but the biggest is that this architecture gets around the browser same origin policy without creating any new security concerns.

This test will take from 1 to 20 seconds to run...

Note this is the "lite" version that isn't hooked up to a database, so although it might say "we didn't previously know that".... we probably did ;-)
