AJAX in CFML

AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) in CFML (ColdFusion Markup Language) allows webpages to update parts of their content dynamically without reloading the entire page. It combines JavaScript's ability to communicate with the server in the background and CFML’s server-side processing to fetch or send data seamlessly. This results in faster, smoother user experiences, as users can interact with a site and see updates instantly—like adding items to a shopping cart or viewing new messages—without waiting for the full page to refresh.
