'''AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML)''' is a modern web design technique that allows for more interactivity. It describes a new way of working with existing technologies (including [[HTML]], [[Javascript]], [[CSS]] and the ''XMLHttpRequest object'' amongst others) rather than a new piece of technology.
 
== Ajax in Moodle ==
 
Moodle has recently (July 2006) adopted the [[Yahoo! user interface library]] and most future work in this area will  build upon that foundation.
 
There are several current projects that make use of these technologies e.g.:
 
* [[Chameleon]] theme
* [[Student projects/AJAX course format]]
 
 
== See also ==
 
* [[Javascript]]
* [[Unobtrusive javascript]]
* [[Hijax]]
