To get more people to use Ajax programming more than they have, IBM has released tools into the open source community. For people like me who could’n't understand Ajax if I had the world’s best map this doesn’t mean much. But for other’s this is a gift.
The Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (Ajax) technique allows developers to create interactive Web applications.
A static Web page exchanges data only when a user clicks on a link or button. Java applications transmit data behind the scenes, making for more responsive and user-friendly online applications.
Popular examples of Java applications include Google’s (Nasdaq: GOOG) Gmail and the Flickr online photo-sharing application.
Creating Ajax applications is considered an arduous task because of browser compatibility issues. Developer tools such as Dojo or the Google Web Toolkit aim to eliminate human errors by providing automation.
