Not sure what to do.....can I run this by you guys?

[Mike Bonner]

I've used load for this in the past.  The ability to specify a callback
message makes it work well.  In my case I was experimenting with offloading
a large job to a webserver for processing.  To help with organizing the
data being returned, I tacked a # and an incrementing number to the end of
each url.  Made it easy to re-assemble things into the proper order.  (Be
aware though, things behave differently between desktop and mobile so you
have to take platform into account)
