AJAX: Simplified beyond belief with Prototype
Before reading this I assume you know your JavaScript.
Creating your own AJAX slash AJAH handler in JavaScript can be a huge pain in the neck. For those who have been struggling with AJAX for a while there’s an easy way out. Its called “prototype” a JavaScript framework that aims to ease development of dynamic web applications. And that’s a direct quote from prototype.conio.net. AJAX is not the only thing that prototype handles, it also eases regular operations such as the document.getElementById(’myeElementId’); by simplifying it as $F(’myElementId’);.
