It depends how much stuff you have in the first div, it there are a lot of images and the user will have to load them again (in case there is no cache) and you care for the traffic those images cost - it would be better to use
AJAX.

But generally - they both okay, I personally would use reload of the whole page just because of the time it would take me to develop it with ajax ;)

HI,

i'm currently working on some web application and i would like to know what
is the best way to do what i want.
basically like all application i have a menu and based on selected item
menu
i want to display a page (basically 50 % of this new page is DB
result/grid.

As usual i have 2 divs, one for the menu one for the content of DB to
display.
i would like to know if it's not better to use AJAX to load the content of the second div (DB result and other stuff) instead to every time load a new
page which load menu and content of DB ?

what are your experiences on such thing ?
thx.

Also, it depends on who you think will be visiting the site, as an
increasing number of people browse the web with devices that have no
JavaScript capabilities, so they wouldn't be able to use an Ajax site.

Jump into the now. As an increasing number of people browse the web with (handheld?) devices, the support will also increase. However, it also depends on the audience you're trying to reach. IMO, I wouldn't limit your site for the few who a) don't have js enabled or b) have a device that doesn't support any standard web browser features anyway.
