i have myself created an Ajax web application and i did not find any security issues in it. I found that my application made it impossible for the user to access the restricted content without logging in. This was because even Ajax calls had to pass through the user authentication layer

i agree with u. i also create an ajax based website but nothing bad happened till now. and yes, good developer always taking security into consideration and ajax wont produce bad effects if we do good coding. bad coding is the source of problem (not ajax). [law no.1 of dwi] ^_^

Our application makes heavy use of AJAX. And we haven't seen any security issues with it. What do you mean by New possibilities for Cross Site Scripting ?
