Bandnews.org loses weight through Ajax
August 29th, 2005
The old page was nice and handy for its time but we figured there are a lot of improvements that can be made. So we have been working on a completely new version based on the welcome page of Bandnews.org. Check it out here.
The user interface has been undergoing a heavy reconstruction, so have the band pages in general. The site is now cleaner, faster to load and most importantly easier to use.
New features include a faster user interface which provides instant reaction by using Javascript. This is now possible due to the widely supported function called XmlHttpRequest. It allows client-server-communication while the currently loaded page remains unchanged. This technique is nowadays refered to as AJAX (Asynchonous JAvascript with Xml).
