Asynchronous JavaScript And XML (AJAX). So if you don't send XML in the asynchronous request is it still AJAX? I still find this a confusing term for nothing more than background remote request. Wether is has a clear meaning or not, it still gets misused a lot rendering the term near worthless. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
