For those of you who didn’t know AJAX is short for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. AJAX is one of web development techniques used for creating interactive web-based applications.
The most important characteristic of AJAX-powered web applications is that it can increase the response, speed, functionality and interactivity by doing all of the data processing “behind the scene” so the web page don’t have to reload each time it need to fetch data from other location.
