Maybe not, but you made some pretty clueless remarks -- like if you
could book-mark the page, the annoying refresh remark, and saying the
demo displayed "bad practice". None were germane to the intent of the
demo, let alone valid.
I just came to think about what the teacher at my Flex course from a
couple of months ago said about "good and bad practice". He said
there is none. If your solution works good for you, that's your good
practice. And if mine doesn't work for you, it's your bad practice -
while it is still my good practice.
That's just an excuse to do what you want and call it good -- but,
there are good and bad practices.
Something however I am trying to "fight" against, if you let me put
it like that - is people approaching "scripts" as if they are
"pages". When you are including a "script that is usually called as
a page" into another script you should be very aware for any clashes
between variables. Another reason why it may be easier to just put
in a Location: header and call your script as it was originally
intended.
Now, I'm clueless as to what you're talking about.
I think most people agree as to what a web page is and if we are
using web languages to communicate with the user, then that is our
medium. There are many ways to use web pages and Location: is only
one of them. Limit yourself as you see fit.
