AJAX time!
Getting started with Ajax as my new goal in life. AJAX is the new new, and is short for “Advanced Javascripting and XML” or “Asynchronous JavaScripting and XML. Essentially it’s DHTML with the xmlhttprequest object thrown in.
Ajax is an approach using these key things:
- standards-based presentation using XHTML and CSS
- dynamic display and interaction using the Document Object Model
- data interchange and manipulation using XML and XSLT
- asynchronous data retrieval using XMLHttpRequest
- and JavaScript binding everything together
Here are a few resources to help you out.

Hi Jesse,
Just found you via technorati. I’m just getting back into Flash after a long excursion into XHTML / CSS / Javascript / AJAX. Actionscript is like a breath of fresh air!
Looks like you’ve listed some great resources on your blog. I’ve got some reading to do…
Cheers,
Tim.
