by Kogent Solutions Inc.

This book discusses what Ajax is and what it means to Web developers, as well as the technologies behind Ajax applications. Working through this book, you’ll discover how Ajax gives web developers the ability to build applications that are more interactive, more dynamic, more exciting and enjoyable for their users. This book shows you how to write some basic applications that use client-side JavaScript to request information from a Server side component and display it without doing a full page reload. This book teaches you how to create applications according to Ajax principles. It also presents several strategies for communicating between the client and the server, including sending raw data, and using XML or JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) for sending more complex collections of data.
