With people still running IE6 (eek!), I donno if moving to HTML5 would be a good idea. Granted, I would be all for it, but there will still be hundreds of people freaking out over the change.

Meh...

It could be something as simple as a text box an "Advanced Options" panel with some various system configuration settings. For instance, I have never had to mess with the authentication system at all, along with a couple of other admin panel options.

Anyway, it really doesn't matter. Anyone running ...

I'm not saying to make everything depend on google. I'm just saying that the users should be given an option. Granted, it's not a lot of space, but if you could save a few KB on bandwidth over X number of users over a given time, it could be worth it. I'm currently mid-process of hosting my images ...

I'm not quite sure I follow you bud. I have a lot of one-liner scripts for jQuery that work extremely well. $("ID").load("URL"), for example, is used in one of my BBCodes to load some output from a different PHP script on the server in order to display specific lists. This code looks like ...

Agreed. The user should be allowed to select a jQuery source from the Board Setting page in the ACP though. Give the user the option to choose "Local File", Google, Microsoft, Custom, Etc.

I have never had service interruption with using Google's jQuery libraries, but just in case I use an if not ...

phpBB3 already has a decent sized list of bots integrated into it's system. Should this system carry over, just use <!-- IF NOT IS_BOT --> Load AJAX <!-- ENDIF --> and your problem is solved. You could always add in user agent checking to eliminate JS loading as well.

Also, as I originally posted ...

A 3.1/3.2 upgrade to full blown AJAX is probably something that isn't going to happen. It would require a massive overhaul to the inner workings of how the board handles links to it's internal files being passed in via URL. Sure, adding nifty things to phpBB 3.1/3.2 would be awesome, but a complete ...

I would love to see something done with AJAX in phpBB4. Something as small as loading the next page of posts in line as you scroll down the page in a thread would increase the overall look, feel, and load speed of most phpBB sites. I have done a considerable amount of work trying to get this to work ...

Considering that "Output to a page" is a plugin, I'm pretty sure you would need "something" in order to display your page.

You are always going to "Need" the proper plugins. Yes, they can be switched out, but with the system you want, if you turn off all plugins, you get a blank page.
