AJAX is not a techno 'buzz' word. It is an acronym that stands for
Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. I would say it is ALWAYS dynamic in
nature, as AJAX would not make sense on a static site.
An AJAX site does not need to rely heavily on CSS at all. How ever Web
Developers may choose to assign CSS classes by Javascript, to achieve a
combination of transition effects, or UI feedback. For example,
highlighting invalid content in a field.

Your an idiot. Living Creature? No one ripped you off, no one ripped
anyone off, it has been around for sometime, and is just a term for a
general way of doing something. BTW, Microsoft invented the
XMLHttpRequest and used it for Outlook Web Access. This is 7 and a bit
years ago. Considering your site was registered 21 May 2003, I fail to
see how you came up with this first.
Also, I fail to see how you were planning to do all of this without
Microsoft inventing the technology and Netscape expanding it, and other
browsers incorporating it.

I repeat, your an idiot, your Flash sites are HORRIBLE.

It's easy to determine if something is AJAX or not. I would estimate any
project that claims to use AJAX most likely DOES use AJAX, or
Asynchronous Javascript, or a very similar method. However, I'd say you
are definitely in the 90% of people who don't know what they are talking
about. You are the biggest troll in this group. Maybe your thinking Web 2.0?
