[Hidden-tech] node.js question

[Levi Ramsey]

The code posted in the later message is definitely Node.  For a web
(i.e. over http) API, it doesn't really matter whether the request is
generated in a browser or not; the only difference is the specific
calls to send an http request.

There may be libraries that run in a browser that are similar though (perhaps the urllib that you require is such a thing?);  where is this code supposed to run - in a user's browser or on a server?
