AJAX tutorial

Post by evilmonkey »

Hey guys,

I'm looking for an AJAX tutorial for a guy who hates the sight of javascript and doesn't understand the practical use of XML (*cough*me*/cough*). I need a very VERY basic tutorial, something that will help me do something like this: http://24ways.org/examples/easy-ajax-with-prototype/ . Much Appreciated.

Cheers!

Actually, that itself doesn't require AJAX, just Javascript.

It's basically saying:

Code: Select all

PSUEDO----
when this text box changes, change the value of the div too.

I used to hate javascript, but now at my job, I have full disgression over the browser that people use [I'm forcing everyone to use firefox 1.0+] - Needless to say, I love my job.

Back to the topic:

The following is a very specific example using AJAX, but its great code and if you can replicate, and make some changes - it should help you understand/learn.

Stick with js - it gets easier as you go.
