ajax for apache?

[jimiwa]

I'm wondering if Ajax can be done on apache web servers.
I don't know a lot about web programming, and I'm only aware
of ajax in ASP, and I have heard that ASP doesn't work on apache
web servers. Is there a version of Ajax that can run on apache
web servers? Thanks.

AJAX is a term used to describe the combination of Asynchronous JavaScript and XML with any server side language such as ASP, PHP, Ruby, Perl, etc. To answer your question, yes, it will work fine with Apache or any other HTTP server.

So if I understand correctly, using ajax means that you can have
a web page that changes it's content without having to reload the
page- and this can be done with any of the languages you mentioned?

AJAX is like JavaScript..you don't have to install anything or use no serverside programming languages.. You can use it everywhere you want. (not in databases ofc)
