Yesterday, I blogged a little bit about the WinJS.xhr object. You may be wondering what that object is and what makes it so special.
WinJS is a JavaScript library that provides the “glue” that connects the HTML/JavasScript world to WinRT. Since it’s just JavaScript, we can take a look at the source code quite easily.

The xhr object is a WinJS wrapper around the venerable XmlHttpRequest object. We can even use Visual Studio 2012 to take a look at the JavaScript source code.
From Visual Studio 2012, find a point in your code where you reference the WinJS.xhr object, right mouse click on the xhr code, and click Go To Definition.
