I can not resist to quote from the page you mention:

update 2005-09-23: noticed this fantastic example of how to avoid all the AJAX malarkey to do this trick. I'm surprised I didn't think of it myself! I'm blinded by science, I suppose - applying new tricks to everything, when a simple gimmick will do the trick even better. Well done, Martin!

So this might be just another demonstration for Ajax being the perfect solution for some problem which still needs to be discovered...
