    A nice introduction to AJAX using PHP to do serverside processing. Prior javascript knowledge is not necessary to understand the book but of course is helpful. The full code block is repeated at each modification. This is both a blessing and a curse. A blessing because no matter where you jump into the book you have all the code necessary to test what is in the example. A curse because it makes an already thin book even thinner on content.
