Have any of you been to www.cnn.com lately? They have gone totally fluid on their home page! Now the site occupies the whole screen. There's also more divs as opposed to tables on there too cool

Of course, I clicked on a link to see how it applied to other pages and those were still left-aligned. Oh well, u gotta start somewhere grin

I don't see any Ajax on the home page -- just simple div switching.

since when did ajax become an image, color or something you see, ma you can see ajax, you feel it grin,

Oops, it seems that CNN isnt going for the fluidity anymore. As of the time of this writing, they reverted to the original format.

As for ajax, timmy, I have been reserving my comments on this but how do you know ajax was used? I mean, I click on something and it takes me to a totally different page. There are no same-page refreshes that I saw, unless I missed it. If so, pls share with us smiley

All I saw was an expanded site with less images and more css (though the view source shows embedded within tables still).

If u suspect ajax dey (which I am not saying isn't), oya share with us pls cool

I just dey wonder. Where did the Ajax come from. Or is Ajax the new name for Javascript?

LOL Zahy,

Yeah man, many pple have been using these technologies for many years unawares, but only had enough faith/confidence to say so because of the cool acronyms. Same applies to LAMP and a host of many others. Plus, and anyone feel free to crucify me for this grin, in naija, I bet if a guy starts chyking a girl and says "hey baby, u r so fine that I could ajaxify an entire site just for u", the girl go fall one time LOL
