Features: Web applications implemented using Ajax can communicate with the server asynchronously without refreshing the page. This change can be considered revolutionary for web applications, as it allows developers to break free from traditional development patterns, enabling them to create more user-friendly and interactive web applications. This book consists of 11 chapters, with the first two introducing the basic concepts and foundational technologies of Ajax. Chapters 3 to 5 demonstrate implementations based on Ajax, such as data validation, autocomplete functionality, and a dynamic tree menu based on Ajax. These examples, though brief, represent several common Ajax application scenarios. Chapters 6 to 11 introduce complete applications, including personalized homepages, forum topic search, a non-refreshing chat room, a map viewing system, photo album browsing, and a web-based MSN. These applications cover the 7 fundamental technologies of Ajax development: XMLHttpRequest, DOM, XML, JavaScript, XHTML, CSS, and XSLT. The case studies in this book are meticulously designed by the authors to minimize content unrelated to Ajax, allowing readers to master Ajax development technology as quickly as possible. This book is suitable for readers with some experience in web development.
