+# node-XMLHttpRequest #
+
+node-XMLHttpRequest is a wrapper for the built-in http client to emulate the
+browser XMLHttpRequest object.
+
+This can be used with JS designed for browsers to improve reuse of code and
+allow the use of existing libraries.
+
+Note: This library currently conforms to [XMLHttpRequest 1](http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/). Version 2.0 will target [XMLHttpRequest Level 2](http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest2/).
+
+## Usage ##
+
+Here's how to include the module in your project and use as the browser-based
+XHR object.
+
+	var XMLHttpRequest = require("xmlhttprequest").XMLHttpRequest;
+	var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
+
+Note: use the lowercase string "xmlhttprequest" in your require(). On
+case-sensitive systems (eg Linux) using uppercase letters won't work.
+
+## Versions ##
+
+Prior to 1.4.0 version numbers were arbitrary. From 1.4.0 on they conform to
+the standard major.minor.bugfix. 1.x shouldn't necessarily be considered
+stable just because it's above 0.x.
+
+Since the XMLHttpRequest API is stable this library's API is stable as
+well. Major version numbers indicate significant core code changes.
+Minor versions indicate minor core code changes or better conformity to
+the W3C spec.

+
+## Supports ##
+
+* Async and synchronous requests

+
+## Known Issues / Missing Features ##
+
+For a list of open issues or to report your own visit the [github issues
+page](https://github.com/driverdan/node-XMLHttpRequest/issues).
+
+* Local file access may have unexpected results for non-UTF8 files
+* Synchronous requests don't set headers properly
+* Synchronous requests freeze node while waiting for response (But that's what you want, right? Stick with async!).
+* Some events are missing, such as abort
+* getRequestHeader is case-sensitive
+* Cookies aren't persisted between requests
+* Missing XML support
+* Missing basic auth
