While reading about ASP.NET Ajax toolkit I stumbled upon the term AJAH. What is it and how is it different from Ajax?
AJAH is someone’s attempt to come up with a new buzzword to mean “Having JavaScript make an HTTP request and get back a blob of HTML instead of a blob of XML”.
Since Ajax has been taken to mean “Having JavaScript make an HTTP request and get back anything at all” (most often JSON these days, but a blob of HTML is also very common), it is a pretty pointless attempt.
