	the ContentLoader class to encapsulate "creative differences" with XHR
	
    Usage:
        - construct a ContentLoader object: var loader = new ContentLoader();
        - set necessary state parameters (via fields); e.g. loader.myvar = 'mytext';
        - set the callback: loader.callback = myfunc;
        - send the request:
            loader.send(url, postdata = null, contentType = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
            (if postdata isn't null or omitted, POST is used, otherwise GET)
        - the callback function is called when the content is loaded
            - the ContentLoader object is this
            - the raw response data is this.text
            - the XML DOM object, if any, is this.document
