Spry Framework
Ajax, shorthand for Asynchronous JavaScript
and XML, is a development technique for creating
interactive web applications. Ajax makes web
pages feel more responsive, because the entire
web page does not have to reload each time
the user interacts with it. The result is an increase
in the web page's interactivity, speed, and usability.
Adobe® Dreamweaver® CS3 helps you design,
develop, and deploy dynamic user interfaces using
the Spry framework for Ajax. The Spry framework
is a JavaScript/HTML library, accessible to both
designers and developers, which allows you to
build pages that provide a richer experience for
users.
