This looks pretty interesting.  But first I need a question.

I'm a little confused by the GPL (rather than LGPL) license, though.

As I understand it, the LGPL would allow a web page author or system author
to use sarissa provided
the web page or system allowed the user to substitute a different version of
sarissa.  This might
be a little easier on the system side, a little harder on the "ASP" side.
But these issues have
been discussed in the LGPL context already.

It's a lot less clear to me what the GPL means in this context, though.  If
I write a back-end server
system and use sarissa in a web page delivered to the browser, at what point
do I draw the line
for GPL applying to the server system?

Thanks,
Leigh.

Sarissa is a JavaScript library that provides a cross-browser interface 
to DOM extentions, XSLT, XMLHTTP and XPath functionality for IE and 
Mozilla (or Moz-based) browsers.

Free under the GPL. This version fixes some stuff that where broken for 
   Mozilla 1.4.
