Ajax is the term that describes a set of web

As deployment of XML data and web services
becomes more widespread, you may occasionally find it convenient to connect
an HTML presentation directly to XML data for interim updates without
reloading the page. Thanks to the little-known
XMLHttpRequest object, an increasing range of web clients can
retrieve and submit XML data directly, all in the background. To convert
retrieved XML data into renderable HTML content, rely on the client-side
Document Object Model (DOM) to read the XML document node tree and compose
HTML elements that the user sees.
