Fake Ajax – an alternate to AJAX

Friends, this is something interesting and exciting too. Excuse me if it's not new to you. Fake Ajax is all about giving effects to your web pages when user enters and exists your web pages. The point to note here is that while doing this it avoids blink that use to happen when user moves around the pages just like we do in Ajax. It's alternate to Ajax (not every time – mind it!) For your kind information, there is no rocket science into it. All you have to do is adding META tag into your web page.

You might have wondered why I have highlighted above words "when user enters and exists your web pages". The reason is that it is the heart of the fAjax. The effects that you are going to give would be visualized only when user enters / exits the web page and not in post back events. Again it might not work in browsers other than IE. Try it out on other browsers ..
