The Jaxon core library
======================

[](#the-jaxon-core-library)

Jaxon is an open source PHP library for easily creating Ajax web applications. It allows into a web page to make direct Ajax calls to PHP classes that will in turn update its content, without reloading the entire page.

Jaxon was forked from the [Xajax PHP library](https://github.com/Xajax/Xajax) very very long ago.

This package is the Jaxon core library. Several plugins are provided in separate packages.
