It appears that you need to send the XML describing the item you want to
delete along with the DELETE request method.

I do not think so. It is already described in the url of the reguest.
But generaly. Is it allowed to send DELETE request via WSH jscript new
ActiveXObject(" Microsoft.XMLHT TP"); ? Here http://safari.oreilly.com/9780596529260/faking-put
I can read that:

What happens when you try doing this through a manual telnet session?


telnet google_host port_no
DELETE /path HTTP/1.0

OK, it looks like you are right in using http DELETE method to delete
calendar events (this is what I understood from reading their docs).
The problem is that either xmlhttp considers it "unsafe" or the server
does not receive your authenticated user info and decides that you are
NOT authorised to delete the event.

There is no XHTML 4 yet.

I think this quote is not relevant. XMLHttpRequest doesn't care about
(X)HTML versions. The only requirement here is that it supports the
DELETE method, which it does.

That's irrelevant either. You are quoting from a *working draft*.

Relevant, but only to MSXML.
