At first glance, Ajax is definitely one of the most complicated web techniques out there. The combination of JavaScript, XML and HTML might be just too much for budding developers, literally requiring months of development for a simple Ajax application. Because of its complication, developers have been backing out from Ajax and looking for some alternatives. Fortunately, alternates have come out. One of them is AHAH wherein an HTML version of Ajax is proposed. AHAH has almost the same output but with simpler coding. Another version called FJAX has been circling around the web as it uses Flash to transfer XML files faster with efficient cross browser capabilities.
