<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<div id="demo">

<p>AJAX is a technique for accessing web servers from a web page.</p>
<p>AJAX stands for Asynchronous JavaScript And XML.</p>
========================================================
What is AJAX?
AJAX = Asynchronous JavaScript And XML.
AJAX is not a programming language.
AJAX just uses a combination of:
• A browser built-in XMLHttpRequest object (to request data from a web server)
• JavaScript and HTML DOM (to display or use the data)
AJAX allows web pages to be updated asynchronously by exchanging data with a web server
behind the scenes. This means that it is possible to update parts of a web page, without
reloading the whole page.
• 1. An event occurs in a web page (the page is loaded, a button is clicked)
• 2. An XMLHttpRequest object is created by JavaScript
• 3. The XMLHttpRequest object sends a request to a web server
• 4. The server processes the request
• 5. The server sends a response back to the web page
• 6. The response is read by JavaScript
• 7. Proper action (like page update) is performed by JavaScript
<?php
$image_path = "image.jpg";
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>My Image</h1>
<img src="<?php echo $image_path; ?>" alt="Description of Image">
</body>
</html>
Here, $image_path is a PHP variable containing the path to the image. By using <?php echo
$image_path; ?>, you dynamically insert the image path into the HTML.
