AJAX is not a sole technology, rather, it is a group of technologies, each of which is clearly stated to the server and runs on its own. With AJAX you can create better, faster, and more user-friendly web applications. It includes the following:

• Standards-based presentation using XHTML and CSS;
• Dynamic display and interaction using the Document Object Model;
• Data interchange and manipulation using XML and XSLT;
• Asynchronous data retrieval using XML Http Request;
• JavaScript binding everything together.

It is a start-stop-start-stop nature of interaction on the Web between the user and the server. The browser loads an Ajax engine, which is responsible for rendering the user-interface and the communication of the server on the users’ behalves.

The Ajax engine allows the user’s interaction with the application to happen asynchronously— independent of communication with the server. So the user is never staring at a blank browser window and an hourglass icon, waiting around for the server to do something.

Ajax users are: Orkut, Gmail, Google Groups, Google Suggest, Google Maps and the Amazon’s A9.com.

It is advantageous to use CSS web design. CSS or cascading style sheets provide a way to keep content and design elements of a website separate. This permits the inclusion of more meaningful and updated content at some later time in a convenient manner. This is a class above the older table-based web designing.

CSS web designing provides the following advantages:

• The design elements for an entire web site can be changed in a single file. In case you wish to change the type size for a heading or for paragraphs all through your site then with CSS web designing the task will be achieved in a matter of minutes or even seconds as opposed to the hours that it normally would have taken otherwise. In case of larger web sites this is particularly beneficial.
• There is more search engine visibility ensured. The reduction of unnecessary tags like table tags etc. help make the actual web page content more readily apparent to the search engines.
• There is ensured improvement of web page accessibility. By allowing the designer to remove unnecessary clutter and also leave some clues for those viewing the website pages using assistive technology, accessibility is actually improved.

You may be in the lookout of a new website or for making adjustments to an existing website. In such case 2 Pixels Solutions is there to help you out with its accessible CSS web design expertise. A CSS based website designed from us will be offering various desirable features-

• It will be based around both the website user’s personal needs and your particular goals.
• It will be having a strong, accessible design that acts as a true reflection of your branding and image.
• It is optimized for search engines.
• It is very quickly downloaded owing to the unique CSS structure lacking tables.

It is set up in compliance with the DDA regulations for web accessibility i.e. the Disability Discrimination Act regulations.

Flex was released in March 2004 by Macromedia. This seeks to support the development and deployment of cross platform, rich Internet applications based upon their proprietary Macromedia Flash platform.

Initially, Flex had been released as a J2EE application or JPG tag library compiling MXML and Action Script on-the-fly into Flash applications i.e. binary SWF files. The later versions of Flex support the creation of static files that are compiled at authoring time and can be deployed online without any server license requirement.

Recently, Adobe has also announced plans to open source Flex though the Flash underpinnings remain proprietary.

The initial releases of Flex were Flex Server 1.0 and 1.5. These were targeted towards the enterprise application development market. Each license pertaining to these included 5 Flex Builder licenses.

Now with the advent of Flex 2.0 the licensing model is changed to open room to a free version of the technology referred to as ‘Flex 2 SDK’. Noteworthy points about Flex 2.0 are:

• This is based on the Eclipse IDE.
• Enterprise-oriented services are made available via Flex data Services 2 providing- data synchronization, data push, publish-subscribe and automated testing.
• This introduces the use of a new version of the ‘Action Script’ scripting language- the Action Script 3 that reflects the latest ECMA Script specification and calls forth the use of Flash Player 9 (or later versions) for the runtime.

Professionals at 2 Pixels Solutions extend their best efforts to fulfill the goal of Flex- to allow Web application developers build rich Internet applications in a quick and easy manner.
