Ajaxify your website, the easy way
Posted May 21st, 2009 by unitone
Is your website Web 2.0 yet?
Maybe it's time to Ajaxify your website.
The easy way is using Ajaxify, a jQuery plugin which features (among other cool things):
- Ajax GET and POST requests
- animations
- partial load from the output
- forms, history and bookmarking support
Build a complex Ajax website with one single line:
$('.ajaxify').ajaxify();
Any link can be converted into an Ajax load and submit request simply by adding class="ajaxify" and target="#container" to the link.
<a class="ajaxify" href="http://maxblog.me/ajaxify/" target="#container">Ajaxify</a>











Ajax is the future of the web, declare the usual suspects, and with good cause. It is, undoubtedly an exciting technology that is already driving forward the idea of Rich Internet Applications. Yet dynamic client-server interaction and the display associated client-side trickery that accompanies it, cannot and will not be spidered, indexed or cached by search engines that don't understand Ajax. In fact it's even simpler than that: search engines not only don't understand it, they don't even see it. The irony being that Google is something of an Ajax pioneer, and GMail one of the best known Ajax applications best shared hosting.
