Servers sending HTML to the browser? Scandalous!

What has the world wide web come to?!

Yes. It is OK for simple form submits but going to get annoying for anything that feels like an app.

There's a reason xpath and xls look they way they do - they're powerful, but not very comfortable :/

Reimplantations tend to simply some bits, but end up amassing complexities in various corners...

People today don't remember that assigning to innerHTML isn't a good idea, so anything goes.

"Bits of HTML" was for a long time so common and normal it has its own term: HTML fragments.

Not sure if satire, or serious. Well done, well done.
