AJAX
Javascript
AJAX sends request to the server and does not wait for the response. It performs other operations on the page during that time JavaScript make a request to the server and waits for response
AJAX does not require the page to refresh for downloading the whole page JavaScript manages and controls a Web page after being downloaded
AJAX minimizes the overload on the server since the script needs to request once JavaScript posts a request that updates the script every time

Users cannot use AJAX if
If Page need to show in a search engine
If browser does not support JavaScript
If user wants to create secure application
20. What are the pre-requisites to execute AJAX applications on a server?
AJAX is a built-in functionality of .NET Framework 4.0 and AJAX application can be executed by just installing Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. To use extenders in your applications, you are required to install AJAX Control Toolkit and copy the AjaxControlToolkit.dll file to the Bin directory of your application.
21. What is AJAX Framework?
ASP.NET AJAX is a free framework to implement Ajax in asp.net web applications. It is used to quickly creating efficient and interactive Web applications that work across all browsers.
22. How can you find out that an AJAX request has been completed?
ReadyState property is used to check whether AJAX request has been completed. If the property is equal to four, then the request has been completed and data is available.
23. Is javascript knowledge is required to do Ajax?
Yes, if you plan to develop new AJAX functionality for your web application.

Array
Object
Null

Reduced Network load
Interactive user interface
Platform and architecture neutrality
Support for both synchronous and asynchronous communication
Provide a server- and client-side framework
46. What is the difference between proxied and proxyless calls in AJAX?
Proxied calls are made through stub objects which can be called from PHP classes on the JavaScript side in AJAX.

RegisterClientScriptResource – specifies Resource name in an assembly. The source attribute is automatically populated with a URL by a call to an HTTP handler that retrieves the named script from the assembly.
49. Which request is better, Get or Post?
AJAX requests should use an HTTP GET request where the data does not change for a given URL requested.
An HTTP POST should be used when state is updated on the server. This is highly recommended for a consistent web application architecture.
