The difference between AJAX and AHAH is about XML. AJAX will load an XML file - then the developer will have to make the code that will parse the XML, extract the data and then display the results. In AHAH the approach is much simpler - the data to be fetched is XHTML - the code just has to fetch it - as the browser is already equipped to handle HTML and will display the result with no further help from the developer.

For example, lets say we need to create a page with tabs - each tab will put some content in the main area - but the full thing must be dynamic - linking to another page won't do. The code of the main page will be...

<ul id="tabs">
 <li><a href="load('javascript.html');">JavaScript</a></li>
 <li><a href="load('ahah.html');">AHAH</a></li>

 <li><a href="load('ajax.html');">AJAX</a></li>
</ul>

<div id="content"></div>
