Abstract

JavaScript frameworks are useful in the development of interactive web pages. Ajax technology supports a dialog with the WWW server. This article compares performance and functionality of the Ajax libraries for major Web browsers. The size of the libraries, their load time and execution time is compared. The article also evaluates the Document Object Model (DOM) support provided by selected libraries.
