for ajax, do i nid...

You need to understand HTML and CSS first. Then understand the concepts of DOM. Then learn JavaScript. Then have a look at prototype (it will help you alot). Understand some server side language. ASP, ASP.NET, PHP, JSP... Understand HTTP and the 2 main request types. Then think of some useful way of putting all of them together... Apply them, and... ...da daaa!!!! you have AJAX!

Ajax is javascript, therefore you will have to learn javascript.
Brad Australian - Christian Graus on "Best books for VBscript" A big thick one, so you can whack yourself on the head with it.
I have to say that AJAX is not JavaScript. AJAX can be achieved with the use of a client side scripting language, HMTL and DOM manipulation and some server side thingies... AJAX stand for asynchronoous javascript and xml. but still, you could achieve the same things with VB Script on the client (would only work in IE). AJAX-like techniques exist since the very early stages of the web. Those days we used hidden frames to get the same effect. As a concept it is very old. It got trendy nowadays coz Google used it on google maps and created a buzz around it.

Of course not! It's just that some large percentage of developers don't think you need to understand anything other than the syntax of the language you are using. And it's not just here on CP, I work with some of them. X|

No. You are talking about Ajax-like development. If you wrote it in VB script then it would be close to the javascript version (well as close as VBscript gets anyway) but it would not be Ajax. The same applies for frame development. And also web developers were using Ajax techniques a fair while before google was releasing beta versions of their products, they just made it semi-famous with end users and non web developers.

Yes I said that AJAX is not JavaScript. Coz strictly speaking, its a combination of JavaScript and XML, regardless how the XML is generated and then served to the client.

I so totally agree. I said that you could achieve the same thing by using another client side scripting language.

I thought that Ajax was strictly XML too, but I was proved wrong about that. but apart from that I guess we are on the same page then.
