Ajax & Web 2.004 Jan 2006
xajax is an open source PHP class library that allows you to easily create powerful, web-based, Ajax applications using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP. Applications developed with xajax can asynchronously call server-side PHP functions and update content without reloading the page.
xajax’s unique XML response / javascript message-pump system does the work for you, automatically handling the data returned from your functions and updating your content or state according to the instructions you return from your PHP functions. Because xajax does the work, you don’t have to write javascript callback handler functions and more..

Mr.2005 did give me many things, from my new PC to a source of income. Infact it kind of gave me an existence. From my website’s stats, in the last 4 months itself, about 90,479 new people knew me :) . I’ve started 2 new websites, One of which is doing pretty well too. Made few wordpress themes Hoping for a very pleasent year ahead better than 05. :D
