Jquery and ajax. Some links

This is the raw ajax function in jquery
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/

This is a wrapper around $.ajax() that simplifies a post ajax call.

Or better yet, here is a bunch of ajax stuff.

All you have to do is bind a js function call to the change event of your combo box.

>I have a page in my ASP.NET application that uses several look-up tables (drop-down controls). Every time the user reloads this page, the Load method "gets" the data from the database and sets the value of the data view to the drop-down controls. It has not been a problem, so far, as far as page loading too slow. But I am wondering, what Javascript technology (or another technology) you would suggest to use if I wanted these pull-down lists (data views) to stay local and not be reloaded every time?
