Ajax and a simple navigation system

clockThursday, November 10th, 2005 Tech/Development Trends | Leave a Comment

Ajax exploded on the scene in the Spring of 2005 when a website defined the term and Google released Google Maps and GMail, powerful examples of what Ajax can do. Ajax uses familiar web technologies - DHTML, CSS, DOM, and JavaScript - in radically different ways resulting in a much richer user experience. The key to success lies in knowing how to orchestrate them as a coherent whole, splitting off parts of what is normally done by the server and putting it into the browser for instantaneous response to user input. Ajax allows a new breed of web applications with the rich expressiveness of desktop applications.

We recently coded a basic Ajax navigation system for a Tracey Ayton’s photography site and it works extremely well from both its visual appeal and the usability standpoint. Have a look: www.tphotography.ca
