Breaking Changes from Clientcide

• IframeShim
  • options:zindex renamed to zIndex
• JsonP
  • renamed to Request.JSONP
  • constructor/send/prepareUrl take options hash, no longer an url directly (like Request)
  • user can change options on the fly when calling send() with a new hash, reusing the object
  • added check method. support for link: ignore, cancel, chain (like Request)
  • added success, request and cancel events
  • data can be a hash or string now (like Request)
  • queryString option gone
  • makeUrl logic now moved to new getScript(), which directly returns the script
  • changed how it essentially works. instead of storing the object reference, we store a new function every time a request is made, that keeps a reference of the script element and the object instance.
  • abortAfter and timeout gone. there's now a single timeout for retries and for when retries run out.
  • globalFunction gone, deemed useless
• Browser.Extras completely refactored into URI Native object
  • Browser.redraw is gone
• Class.Binds no longer supports lowercase binds
• Element.fxOpacityOk (which was never documented or intended for external use) is gone
• Element.isVisible renamed to Element.isDisplayed
• FormValidator base class no longer does what it did (that is now in FormValidator.Inline)
• OverText
  • no longer takes a collection of inputs.
  • .showTxt > .show, .hideTxt > .hide
  • .hide and .show no longer take the element and 'focus' arguments.
  • .repositionAll is gone; .repositionOverTxt is now just .reposition; it does not take an argument
• String.Extras
  • findAllEmails gone, too specific
• Date
  • Number / String extensions moved to string extras. zeroise made an anonymous function, was lame
• Element.setPosition is now Element.position
• String.Extra query functions moved to URI.js

• parseQuery > parseQueryString for consistency with cleanQueryString

• Request.Queue
  • event names all renamed; onRequestStart >> onRequest, onRequestSuccess >> onSuccess, etc
