akadajet is actually entirely correct, since neither xml or http is actually (necessarily) involved in XMLHttpRequest, it is just over-verbose and misleading

emoji posted:It's defensible because it looks better and is more readable. You will always see this pattern for adjacent acronyms because keeping all of them all caps removes information on which letters belong to which. Adhering to the 'rules' and reducing clarity makes no sense because the 'rules' are there to provide clarity, not satisfy OCD tendencies. Hope this helps. yeah but the person is dumb if they think XMLHTTP is all one abbreviation. so you're just making it more confusing to type and sacrificing grammar for some weird rule of writing function names or whatever that doesn't make any sense. also i think you mean abbreviations, not acronyms, unless they are acronyms!
