        // will be defined upon calling the initialization function, and not set directly.//

        // to match a broader hostname scope; the action will continue to use {{{$.post}}}
        // (the default AJAX method for Ajax IM).
        //
        // On the other hand, should you choose a URL outside the current domain
        // Ajax IM will switch to {{{$.getJSON}}} (a get request) to avoid
        // cross-domain scripting issues. This means that a server on a different
