<!--Scripts with [[Ajax (programming)|Ajax]] usually do something without leaving the page.-->

==[[XMLHttpRequest]]==

Usual approach for creating cross-browser [[XMLHttpRequest]] object is<br />

To create the object you could use cross-browser example from the article but it's easier to utilize built-in [{{SERVER}}/skins-1.5/common/ajax.js ajax.js] functionality:

<code>if (window.XMLHttpRequest) ... else if (window.ActiveXObject) ...</code>.

However, built-in [{{SERVER}}/skins-1.5/common/ajax.js ajax.js] already has this code, so userscripts can simply use

<source lang=javascript>

xmlhttp = sajax_init_object();

</source>
