AJAXStands for Asynchronous Javascript and XML

This is a coding convention that makes the web browser behave more like a desktop application. Small data requests are sent to the server to retrieve info behind the scenes preventing the whole webpage from refreshing . Examples of this are seen in GMail, the new YahooMail, Flickr, and Ta-Da List.

Ruby on RailsRuby is the programming language, Rails is the framework

Developed by David Heinemeier Hansson from the company 37Signals. It allows for the easy and quick development of web applications. Sites that took months to create can now be completed in days.
