Ajax: What is it Good For?

We are going to walk through the basics of Ajax and culminate in the building of a little Ajax powered Fading Image Gallery application. In this way it is hoped that a deeper appreciation for what Ajax is capable of is conveyed. It also should be noted that in another upcoming tutorial, we will tweak that Image Gallery widget and add some form processing capabilities to it, add some more FX, get a few glitches out of that system etc.
In other words, this initial tutorial is meant to help you get up and running in building your first Ajax powered Web application. Later we will look at refinement and adding features so that you can gain a more comprehensive understanding of the techniques and mindset required for Ajax. In short this tutorial is not meant to be the be all and end all of Ajax, rather it is better thought of as development in progress. Though the development in progress in this case has some clear aims and techniques to impart that should hopefully serve you well in future Ajax endeavours.
