The Cache-Control: no-cache HTTP/1.1 header field is also intended for use in requests made by the client. It is a means for the browser to tell the server and any intermediate caches that it wants a fresh version of the resource. The Pragma: no-cache header field, defined in the HTTP/1.0 spec, has the same purpose. It, however, is only defined ...
In computing, POST is a request method supported by HTTP used by the World Wide Web. By design, the POST request method requests that a web server accepts the data enclosed in the body of the request message, most likely for storing it. [1] It is often used when uploading a file or when submitting a completed web form.
JSONP, or JSON-P (JSON with Padding), is a historical JavaScript technique for requesting data by loading a <script> element, [1] which is an element intended to load ordinary JavaScript. It was proposed by Bob Ippolito in 2005. [ 2 ]
XMLHttpRequest (XHR) is an API in the form of a JavaScript object whose methods transmit HTTP requests from a web browser to a web server. [1] The methods allow a browser-based application to send requests to the server after page loading is complete, and receive information back. [ 2 ]
To allow intermediate HTTP nodes (proxy servers, web caches, etc.) to accomplish their functions, some of the HTTP headers (found in HTTP requests/responses) are managed hop-by-hop whereas other HTTP headers are managed end-to-end (managed only by the source client and by the target web server).
Asynchronous JavaScript and JSON (or AJAJ) refers to the same dynamic web page methodology as Ajax, but instead of XML, JSON is the data format. AJAJ is a web development technique that provides for the ability of a web page to request new data after it has loaded into the web browser. Typically, it renders new data from the server in response ...
Request line, such as GET /logo.gif HTTP/1.1 or Status line, such as HTTP/1.1 200 OK, Headers; An empty line; Optional HTTP message body data; The request/status line and headers must all end with <CR><LF> (that is, a carriage return followed by a line feed). The empty line must consist of only <CR><LF> and no other whitespace.
JSON or XML for the interchange of data, and XSLT for XML manipulation; The XMLHttpRequest object for asynchronous communication; JavaScript to bring these technologies together; Since then, however, there have been a number of developments in the technologies used in an Ajax application, and in the definition of the term Ajax itself.
