What do you do with Ajax in your sites?

Hi,

I wrote a stars voting system for my site using Ajax.
You can see it at: Voting System (http://www.gamestoenjoy.com/site/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=304)
(it is under the game)

Besides using it for voting system, what else can I use Ajax for?
Where do you use Ajax in your sites?

I think Ajax is great, and would like to learn from your experience :D

I use it anymore for anything I to save bandwidth and time for my clients. Right now I am creating two systems that use it immensely. An online ticketing system with uses asynchronous get to another script to retrieve info from DB and add or erase info from DB, this saving valuable time and bandwidth.

Also I am creating another system an online payroll system right now that uses it in the same way. But I am integrating it more into the system so that more things are done this way, not just basic commands and updates.

Thanks, nice to hear that Ajax is also used for commercial applications.

I used AJAX in additional place in my site:
added refresh button for random games,
so when you click it the random games are refreshed.
Cool way to choose your games this way :D

You can check it (it is the refresh icon on top left of the screen):

since ajax allows for client-server communication, it can pretty much be used for anything of the sort.

form submissions, database requests, logins, information queries, cookie handling, IP blocking, loading server data as inline data, loading dynamic info/files, navigation handling, conditional action handling, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera... all this without having to leave the page (or changing the href location).

with ajax, the sky is the limit. i'm sure it can even be adapted into a calender which draws event data from a database upon clicking an available day (sending the clicked data to server and returning the response), and write the returned data to a div. that's a little tweak of my imagination.

Yes indeed I found such implementation:
