Introduction to AJAX


AJAX is a technique that allows updating parts of a web page without reloading the entire page.


What is AJAX?

AJAX = Asynchronous JavaScript and XML.

AJAX is a technology for creating fast and dynamic web pages.

AJAX enables web pages to be updated asynchronously by exchanging small amounts of data with the server behind the scenes. This means that it is possible to update parts of a web page without reloading the entire page.

Traditional web pages (which do not use AJAX) must reload the entire page if the content needs to be updated.

Many applications use AJAX, such as Google Maps, Gmail, Youtube, and Facebook.
