The Update Version Development of "Wiki Message Linking" System - Integrated Ajax with MVC Model

This paper described the using of Ajax technology to improve the functions of the ´wiki message linking´ system which was developed as study tool for the IT group in California State University, San Bernardino in 2005. It is a system extending the wiki paradigm with the characters to allow users to freely create, edit their content and link them into the evolving body of content by using any regular Web browser in a quick and easy way. We adopted the MVC pattern with Ajax technology in this new version. Instead of loading a webpage, the browser loads an Ajax engine. The Ajax engine allows the user´s interaction with the application to happen asynchronously. So the user is never waiting around for the server to do something.
