AJAX commonly stands for Asynchronous Javascript and XML. "Asynchronous" isn't always true since you're usually responding synchronously to user actions. "XML" isn't really a part of it (unless you want it to be) since JSON (and sometimes XHTML) are the preferred methods of data transport. So that leaves you with Javascript (there are ways to not use JS, but they involve using Flash and ActionScript). IMO, saying you want to learn AJAX without learning JS is like saying you want to learn web programming without learning HTML and HTTP. Sure there are probably frameworks out there that will hide those details from you, but sooner or later you're gonna have to get your hands dirty, or suffer the consequences :) -- Michael Peters Developer Plus Three, LP --------------------------------------------------------------------- Web Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/cgiapp@lists.erlbaum.net/ http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=cgiapp&r=1&w=2 To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
