And here I was, when AJAX first released, I struggled to wrap my head around making it work. I didn't last long in webdev, it just wasn't my forte. At best I can shell script some tasks these days but I'm way too out of practice at this point.
What is AJAX exactly?
It's using Javascript to retrieve and update information on the page without refreshing or moving to a different one. Example usage, on a sign up page, it can tell you a username is taken before you try to submit the form. The name is an acronym for Asynchronous Javascript And XML.
Thank you
