Hi
I am a bit of a novice with JS and this may seem like a completely
stupid question, but i want to be able to update a bit of text on a
page based on information from the server without reloading the page.
The only way i can think of doing such a thing is having an active
server page that returns an image, that is generated on the fly. As
long as there is no caching on the client this in theory will allow
the client to perform an action on the server and display an image
generated on the fly as a result of this action without actually
reloading the page, simply by requesting an image.
My question is, can you do anything like this with straight forward
text?
Cheers
