             src = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
    
          <script type = "text/javascript" language = "javascript">
             $(document).ready(function() {
                $("#driver").click(function(event){
                   $('#stage').load('result.html');
                });
             });
          </script>
       </head>

                   $.getJSON('result.json', function(jd) {
                      $('#stage').html('<p> Name: ' + jd.name + '</p>');

          <title>The jQuery Example</title>
          <script type = "text/javascript" 
             src = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
    
          <script type = "text/javascript" language = "javascript">
             $(document).ready(function() {
    
                $("#driver").click(function(event){
    
                   $.post(

    1. $.ajax():
    it's a jquery method and it is used to perform the ajax request i.e (asynchronous request).Jquery ajax methods use the ajax() method because ajax() method is mostly used for request. Syntax :
    $.ajax({name:value, name:value, ... })
    

    In the above, syntax for the ajax request parameters specifies one or more name value

    Some most useful possible values are given below in ajax() method:
    1. url: this parameter specifies the URL to send the request to the server.

    2.type: type specifies the type of request i.e GET or POST request.

    3.data: data specifies data parameters which to be sent to the server.

    4.dataType: set the type of data expected of the server response(json,jsonp,xml,script,html).

    5.async: async means asynchronous request which indicate the requset is asynchronous or not. It's default is true and if set false then use the sync request.

    6.complete(xhr,status):this function run when the request is finished after success and error functions.

    7.error(xhr,status,error): this function to run if the request is fails.

    Code Example :

    Below is demo.txt file :

    This is some text in a paragraph.

    In the above code consider the txt and save in demo.txt file.

    <html>
    <head>
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
        $("button").click(function(){
            $.ajax({url: "demo.txt", success: function(result){
                $("#div1").html(result);
            }});
        });
    });
    </script>
    </head>
    <body>
    
    <div id="div1"><h2>Let jQuery AJAX Change This Text</h2></div>
    
    <button>External Content</button>
    
    </body>
    </html>
    

    In the above code demo.txt file is used into $.ajax() method and use url and success function to change the given div to demo.txt file content on click of button in jquery ajax.
