Hi Brett!

How does Ajax compare to Unix script files (.sh, .csh)? What is the main advantage?

Thanks for the info,
Rob

They don't really have much to do with each other at all. Shell scripts are a collection of shell commands than can be executed as a unit, while Ajax is a means to make asynchronous requests from a browser.

Now, Ajax can be used to trigger shell scripts as CGI programs...
