AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript + XML) is a rapidly emerging programming technique that attracts lots of attention nowadays. The improved interactivity of AJAX-powered interfaces bridges the traditional gap between desktop and web applications. Ability to mash-up services or functionality in a rich client allows building powerful new or improving existing web software. Well-applied Ajax is a definite advantage for any kind of web application – from simple sites to complex and sophisticated business applications.
AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML), or Ajax
, is a group of inter-related web development techniques used for creating interactive web applications.
A primary characteristic is the increased responsiveness and interactivity of web pages
achieved by exchanging small amounts of data with the server "behind the scenes" so
that the entire web page does not have to be reloaded each time the user performs an
action.
Benefits Of AJAX
AJAX brings to web applications new characteristics that are not available as standard in traditional web applications.
