hi, i am so excited about this i had to tell someone.
This week was the first week i had time to tryout AJAX. It is sooo kool. i wrote a function that will post any form and retrieve all form elements and pass them to a PHP script as POST. and then in my case query a Database and return the results without a page refresh. And for change password forms( onblur check database and if no exist show error text)
i will mainly use AJAX on admin areas due to the still limited javascript universal functionality (if a user disables javascript, they then disable ajax). Believe it or not i still have people hitting my sites with javascript disabled. So silly.
A good use for AJAX would be like here. Comments, rating systems, anything you can think of that you wouldn't want the page to refresh. It is like taking a web app and turning it into a desktop app.
i am just so excited i had to tell someone.... yeah I'm a Geek!
