Stephen68 Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Ok I am looking into trying out AJAX, I figured I better get a better understanding of javascrip. Am I right in my thinking, I should have a good understanding of JS before moving into ajax? Also I have been playing with an ajax script and what it does is when the link on the page is clicked it loads a external page into the current page in the proper named div tags. So I just started making php functions on the page that loads for displaying query's from a DB. Is this basically what ajax is about? Letting me show/update and whatever from the database with out loading a new window? So let me know if I'm on the right train of thinking I guess is what I'm asking lol Cheers!

jackpf Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yeah, ajax is basically just a way of communicating with the server without reloading the page, by http requests. You definitely need knowledge of javascript and some server side programming like php or asp(crap). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
