Ajax Introduction

Feel interested on AJAX? AJAX, is a web development technique used for creating interactive web applications. AJAX is an acronym standing for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. Ajax is asynchronous in that loading does not interfere with normal page loading. Javascript is the programming language that Ajax function calls are made in. Data retrieved using the technique is commonly formatted using XML, as reflected in the naming of the XMLHTTPRequest object from which Ajax is derived. (adapted from Wikipedia).
