Chapter 2: AJAX Foundations

It is said that one picture is worth a thousand words. And so is a well-written piece of code, we would say. In this chapter you will get plenty of both, while learning the foundations of client-side AJAX development.

On the other hand, if you found the first exercise too challenging, be assured that this time we will advance a bit slower. We will learn the theory in parts by going through many short examples.
