Re: Why use SOAP?
by Jason Keirstead on Friday 24/Jun/2005, @08:36

AJAX is not a technology *at all* - it is a buzzword co-opted by Adaptive path to describe a technique for asynchronous data retrieval by using the XMLHttpRequest pbject, that they like to think they invented.

Too bad web developers (such as myself) had been doing this for years earlier.

AJAX is not a protocol - the protocol is HTTP. It is not a data format - the data format is XML and/or JSON. It is just a buzzword.
