Foundations of AJAX
Foundations of Ajax presents a concise, down-to-earth explanation of the Ajax technology. Cutting through the hyperbole, this book focuses on what the Ajax technology means, how you start using it, and why it can make a difference to your products.
The authors begin with a clear explanation of how the Ajax techniques work, presenting the
"XMLHttpRequest" object, and outlining how requests to the server are handled. Then they demonstrate the techniques' strengths and weaknesses in a variety of environments, backing up their discussion with a multitude of coding examples and links to existing Ajax applications already on the Web. The authors put it all together and leave you with a solid understanding of how to use this new Ajax approach to its fullest potential.
