Question

Which of the following is not a method of AJAX?

(c) post()

(d) stop()

This question was addressed to me during an internship interview.

The question is from Essential JavaScript and jQuery topic in portion HTML Tables, Javascript & Jquery Basics of HTML

Answer 1

Right choice is (d) stop()

To explain I would say: AJAX is basically used for exchanging data with server. There are several methods in jQuery for AJAX. Ajax(), ajaxSetup(), ajaxPrefilter(), ajaxTransport(), getJSON(), post(), ajaxSend(), ajaxError(), load(), serializeArray(), serialize(), ajaxStop(), ajaxStart() are some of the methods.
