Okay… now I’m starting to tread into dangerous development waters… Isaac piqued my curiosity in what’s beed dubbed AJAX. AJAX stands for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, a term describing a web development technique for creating interactive web applications, combining the power of XML, JavaScript, and HTML/XHTML/CSS, along with your run-of-the-mill server-side scripting like PHP or ASP.

I found an okay primer on using XMLHttpRequest, but it made quite a few assumptions and didn’t provide enough explanations as to what was what and why they did it or why it worked.

Anyone have any great intro/primer web resources out there on AJAX and related XMLHttpRequest resources? I’ve decided that this is a new frontier that I’d like to venture off into and become more in tune with.
