XMLHttpRequest

What is XHR Stands for?

The XHR (XMLHttpRequest) object is the core of the Ajax engine. It is the object that enables a page to get data from (using the GET method) or post data to (using the POST method) the server as a background request, which means that it does not refresh the browser during this process. The XHR eliminates the need to wait on the server to respond with a new page for each request and allows users to continue to interact with the page while the requests are made in the background.
Aside from the background data processing, the GET and POST methods of the XHR object work the same as a standard HTTP request. Using either the POST or the GET method allows you to make a request for data from the server and receive a response in any standardized format. The most common formats in which to receive a response are XML, JSON (JavaScript Object Notation), and text. "The Response." POST is specifically useful when sending data that is larger than 512 bytes (an amount that the GET method cannot handle). After a response is received, the application can be populated with new data from the server by using the DOM with DHTML, which is a combination of XHTML, JavaScript, and CSS.
