Using Ajax from Perl (O'Reilly) [LWN.net]

Dominic Mitchell discusses the use of Ajax from Perl on O'Reilly. "If you're even remotely connected to web development, you can't have failed to have heard of Ajax at some point in the last year. It probably sounded like the latest buzzword and was one of those things you stuck on the "must read up on later" pile. While it's definitely a buzzword, it's also quite a useful one. Ajax stands for "Asynchronous JavaScript and XML." It's a term coined by Jesse James Garret in "Ajax: A New Approach to Web Applications." Ignore the football team, they're mere impostors. ;-) What does that actually mean? In short, it's about making your web pages more interactive."
