----------------------------------------------------------- From: RajDotNet Message 3 in Discussion Hi Rahul, AJAX or Asynchronous JavaScript and XML is a term describing a web development technique for creating interactive web applications using a combination of: HTML (or XHTML) and Cascading Style Sheets for presenting information Document Object Model, JavaScript to dynamically display and interact with the information presented XML, XSLT and the XMLHttpRequest object to interchange and manipulate data asynchronously with the web server (although AJAX applications can use other technologies, including preformatted HTML, plain text, JSON and JSON-RPC (http://oss.metaparadigm.com/jsonrpc/) as alternatives to XML/XSLT). Like DHTML or LAMP, AJAX is not a technology in itself, but a term that refers to the use of a group of technologies together. In fact, derivative/composite technologies based substantially upon AJAX, such as AFLAX are already appearing. AJAX applications use web browsers that support the above technologies as a platform to run on. Browsers that support these technologies include Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, Konqueror and Safari. Please note: "Opera does not support XSL formatting objects, and neither does it natively support XSLT transformations" (http://www.opera.com/docs/specs/). You can read more about it on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX Having said that you have different efforts that are happening to support Ajax in .net. One of them is Ajax.NET - A free library for the Microsoft .NET Framework You can download the latest release of Ajax.Net from http://ajax.schwarz-interactive.de/download/Ajax.zip You could also check out this article http://www.15seconds.com/issue/050526.htm about Implementing AJAX Using ASP.NET 1.1 HTH, Raj ----------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this e-mail, or change how often it arrives, go to your E-mail Settings. http://groups.msn.com/BDOTNET/_emailsettings.msnw Need help?
