ZulfadlyAshBurn Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 You would need the fundamental basic of javascript. It's also best if you learn jQuery which would help a lot in ajax and javascript stuffs.

coded4u Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Use Ajax new XMLHttpRequest(); As for the content being updated you can use new XMLHttpRequest(). responseText to return the update.

Christian F. Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Do what ZulfadlyAshBurn said, and learn/use jQuery for this. It alleviates a LOT of the manual work and browser incompatibilities surrounding AJAX. Doing it manually, as C4U said, is not a good idea for production. One thing to do it manually to learn how AJAX works, another thing to waste the time and effort which should be spent on other things, when putting it into a production system.
