Ajax is at the heart of the Web 2.0 revolution. It isn't a technology
but, rather, is a technique that leverages other technologies and
techniques, such as CSS, XML, DHTML, and XHTML. Many Web designers and
programmers would like to incorporate Ajax in their projects because of
the amazing functionality it can add to a Web site, but they can't
because of the steep learning curve. That's where this book steps in. It
makes learning Ajax fun and easy -- a great place to start! Visual
QuickProject Guides focus on a single project. In this case the project
is creating a business employee directory, like an address book. What's
being created is a better, new kind of Web site.
