AJAX request lifecycle
This section provides an overview of the lifecycle of an
AJAX request in the IBM WebSphere Multichannel Bank

AJAX request operation
An AJAX request operation executes the tasks that are required
to process the AJAX request. Every AJAX request must bind with an
AJAX request operation for the request to be processed.
Session establishment
As with all requests made in a WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit application,
a session must be established for an AJAX request to be processed.
Validation
Data from AJAX requests is validated both on the server
and on the client.
Exception and error management
Exceptions and errors are handled in the WebSphere Multichannel
Bank Transformation Toolkit AJAX channel
in the same way as exceptions and errors are handled in the HTML channel.
