What you are reading about sounds like AJAX. Although, these days that
buzzword doesn't really depict what is typically done with the concept.
It is quickly turning into AJAJ (JSON/Javascript) or AJAH (HTML)
depending on how the data being returned is used. Getting buzzwords to
change is difficult. I digress.
If you want to use AJAX, you are going to need to learn Javascript and
preferably leverage a Javascript library. I highly recommend using
jQuery. jQuery is the best thing to come along in a LONG time and I've
used several Javascript libraries. I've gotten quite a bit of mileage
out of jQuery and it makes short work of AJAX.
