mojax is not AJAX
About Mobile AJAX, or, mojax is not Mobile AJAX clarifies that mojax is not really supporting AJAX, even though it's quite similar in concept. The reason it that it doesn't support an HTML browser with DOM editing. Nevertheless, it seems to be a good tool for creating mobile widgets, and getting things done is what counts.
I also got it wrong in AJAX framework for mobile phones.
Enrique argues that the next step would be to support other mobile browsing standards in mojax. I honestly think it's much more important to support the technologies used on the "normal" Web, so that existing tools can be re-used. The longer we push special technologies for the mobile Web, the more time it will take before it's broadly deployed.
