AJAX Articles and Tutorials from Mozilla
Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX)
is a method, or model, of using existing technologies in combination
together. These include: HTML or XHTML,
Cascading Style Sheets, JavaScript, The Document Object Model, XML,
XSLT,
and XMLHttpRequest.
When these technologies are combined in the AJAX model, web
applications have the ability to make fast, incremental updates to the
user
interface without reloading the entire browser page, thus
the application becomes quicker and more responsive
to user actions.
The following are AJAX
Articles and Tutorials hosted and linked from
Mozilla.org that will help you learn how to use and code with the AJAX
model. These will teach you and show you how to use many useful
AJAX coding techniques.
