Synopsis

Ajax is the term used to describe the combination of three hot technology topics CSS, XML, and JavaScript providing faster, more sophisticated Web user interfaces. This work explores the technologies behind Ajax, its various usage models and communication methods, and why the Ajax model is better than the traditional Web model. It discusses Ajax and its practical implementation in a professional Web site/application environment, and examines a variety of server-side languages (such as PHP and .NET), so that readers can get an overview of development issues prior to implementing their own Ajax solutions. It also covers building a Web-based Ajax RSS reader and calling Web services from JavaScript.
