hello, i am new to javascript and jQuery both... i am developing one page in which i have generated page's whole html from code... in the page there in one textbox to Post Messages and for each message comments can be posted... now when i post a new comment oor delete comment i need to do database call. i knew 2 method to do it from js
- do xmlhttprequest
- do ajax call from jQuery.
can anybody suggest me which method will suite my requirement?? -thanks in advance
xmlhttprequest is not working through cross-browser, for example some IE versions, so best option is jQuery's ajax call.
Each browser has their own implementation of XmlHttpRequest. Using a framework will minimize the headache of cross-browser differences and quirks, especially if you are very new.
jQuery itself will be using XMLHTTPRequest object. What it provides will be a wrapper for the functions. So if you want to avoid the burden of writing javascript that targets various browsers then you can opt for jQuery.
