As we know ajax is asyn javasccript and Xml so we're using javascript to do DOM manipulations, and since there are DOM and CSS peculiarities between all browsers to some degree, the short answer is basically yes.

Ajax is used to show the error message dynamically, when using Ajax first the control goes to javascript then javascript deals with the server.

AJAX is not a new programming language, but a technique for creating better, faster, and more interactive web applications.

With AJAX, your JavaScript can communicate directly with the server, using the JavaScript XMLHttpRequest object. With this object, your JavaScript can trade data with a web server, without reloading the page.

AJAX uses asynchronous data transfer (HTTP requests) between the browser and the web server, allowing web pages to request small bits of information from the server instead of whole pages.

The AJAX technique makes Internet applications smaller, faster and more user-friendly.

Native Ajax is browser dependant.. However, if you use an Ajax tool kit (Dojo, prototype, scriptaculos etc) the browser specific issues are wrapped by the toolkits and as a developer one does not need to worry about browser specifics.

According to me Ajax is not a browser dependent why because Ajax use web standard like DHTML,CSS,XML and JAVASCRIPT which are mostly well defined and support almost all major browser. so i think Ajax is not browser dependant.

One thing i have forgotten to write that Due to some web standard we may call it as Browser dependant like if we will use JSON then it is not supported by all browser . so when we are using Ajax we have see the webstandard we used for it..But except some condition Ajax is a Browser Indepedent...

I have given my view on ajax but i am expecting more suggestion from your side.Still it is a debatable topic...

Have a good day.....
