    Hhhmmm... I can't find a single true statement in the
above.

    AJAX stands for "asynchronous javascript and
xml", and has absolutely 
nothing to do with presentation. It is the client-side of
the transport 
layer, period. XHTML and CSS (neither of which have anything
to do with 
AJAX) are simply not capable of using vectors for text,
which is much more 
suited to display and edit text than HTML. Maybe what you
mean is XHTML and 
CSS make it easier for you to work within your chosen CMS
architecture?

    I'm not trying to make you look foolish, it's just
that overblown 
descriptions like that are what make "real"
programmers delete the job 
posting without finishing the first paragraph.
