using(ajax.),Using AJAX to Develop Courseware

摘要：

Online course developers face difficulties when combining various rich media and other elements into courseware such that editing and maintenance is easy. Asynchronous Javascript and XML (AJAX) is a coding technique that allows for the updating of only portions of a web page while leaving the remaining portions unchanged. By using AJAX, developers can architect sites that are easily edited and maintained at both the site level and page level without disrupting navigation schemes. AJAX is a combination of non-proprietary web technologies, specifically hypertext markup language, javascript, extensible markup language, and cascading style sheets. Use of special authoring tools is not required in order to develop AJAX web pages. Any media type supported by browsers (and whatever proprietary plug-ins the developer desires to use) can be incorporated into AJAX coded web pages. Examples and code samples presented.
