Just more JavaScript stuff related to handling returns from XMLHttpRequest. I wouldn't have learned it if whoever wrote the original code had written it correctly. :) (An optimistic bunch who assumes everything will go well, while I'm a fatalist who tries to handle potential errors that can be returned). It was frustrating not knowing what was going on, but very rewarding when I figured it out.

There's always some weird thing to learn in JavaScript. I'm still relatively new at web app development.
