// Switch Content Script- By Dynamic Drive, available at: http://www.dynamicdrive.com
// Created: Jan 5th, 2007
// April 5th, 07: Added ability to persist content states by x days versus just session only
// March 27th, 08': Added ability for certain headers to get its contents remotely from an external file via Ajax (2 variables below to customize)
