	 * Load a remote page using an HTTP request. This function is the primary

	 *
	 * These are all the key/values that can be passed in to 'prop':
	 *
	 * (String) type - The type of request to make (e.g. "POST" or "GET").
	 *
	 * (String) url - The URL of the page to request.
	 *
	 * (String) data - A string of data to be sent to the server (POST only).
	 *
	 * (String) dataType - The type of data that you're expecting back from
	 * the server (e.g. "xml", "html", "script", or "json").
	 *
	 * (Boolean) ifModified - Allow the request to be successful only if the
	 * response has changed since the last request, default is false, ignoring
	 * the Last-Modified header
	 *
	 * (Number) timeout - Local timeout to override global timeout, eg. to give a
	 * single request a longer timeout while all others timeout after 1 seconds,
	 * see $.ajaxTimeout
	 *
	 * (Boolean) global - Wheather to trigger global AJAX event handlers for
	 * this request, default is true. Set to true to prevent that global handlers
	 * like ajaxStart or ajaxStop are triggered.
	 *
	 * (Function) error - A function to be called if the request fails. The
	 * function gets passed two arguments: The XMLHttpRequest object and a
	 * string describing the type of error that occurred.
	 *
	 * (Function) success - A function to be called if the request succeeds. The
	 * function gets passed one argument: The data returned from the server,
	 * formatted according to the 'dataType' parameter.
	 *
	 * (Function) complete - A function to be called when the request finishes. The
	 * function gets passed two arguments: The XMLHttpRequest object and a
	 * string describing the type the success of the request.
