AJAX is a technology that can update parts of a web page without reloading the entire web page.
1. What is ajax:
(1). Ajax is asynchronous JavaScript and XML, and the entire English process is Asynchronous JavaScript and XML.
(2).ajax can realize asynchronous updates of local web pages by exchanging a small amount of data with the background, avoiding the need to refresh the page.
Under normal circumstances, if you want to update the data of a web page, you need to refresh the entire page. If you use ajax, you can only refresh partially.
AJAX working principle
2. AJAX is based on the existing Internet standards:
ajax is not new technology, but based on existing Internet standards and technologies:
(1).XMLHttpRequest object (asynchronous exchange of data with the server).
(2).JavaScript/DOM (information display/interaction).
(3).CSS (define styles for data).
(4).XML (as the format for conversion data).
3. Code example:
The above has given a basic introduction to ajax. Here is a simple code example. Let’s feel its function first:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset=" utf-8"> <meta name="author" content="//m.sbmmt.com/" /> <title>php中文网</title> <script> function loadXMLDoc(){ var xmlhttp; if (window.XMLHttpRequest){ xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else{ xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function(){ if(xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200){ document.getElementById("show").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","demo/ajax/txt/demo.txt",true); xmlhttp.send(); } window.onload=function(){ var obt=document.getElementById("bt"); obt.onclick=function(){ loadXMLDoc(); } } </script> </head> <body> <div id="show"><h2>原来的内容</h2></div> <button type="button" id="bt">查看效果</button> </body> </html>
The path of demo/ajax/txt/demo.txt in the code can be changed to create it locally and observe the effect.
