title: hta - ajax call to php script on webserver
body: <p>I am thinking of writing a desktop HTA program.</p>
  
  <p>However, at startup I would need to make 1 ajax php database call to a website, which will need a success element callback.</p>
  
  <p>Is this possible? Would I need to overcome any crossbrowser issues? Would firewalls cause any problems?</p>
