Introduction to AJAX
AJAX was first coined by Jesse James Garrett of Adaptive Path in February 2005 in his essay "Ajax: A New Approach to Web Applications”. Ajax (asynchronous JavaScript and XML) is more of a technique than it is a specific technology. Its greatest advantage in web browser is to enable the client to request data from server asychronously without reloading the page. The technology makes Internet applications smaller, faster and more user friendly.
