Today I used AJAX, Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, for the first time in a web application project. I just modified my AJAX example code slightly for an Active Server Pages script with data coming from a SQL Server database. I was very pleased because I need a good example of this technology for my portfolio. I also installed the 1-2-All Broadcast E-mail Software for a client in order to run an e-mail marketing campaign. I exported their customer e-mail addresses from their shopping cart software and imported them into the 1-2-All Broadcast E-mail Software’s subscriber list.<\/p>\n
Installing the 1-2-All Broadcast E-mail Software required creating a new MySQL database with the usual problem setting the database user for an old password.

It should also handle bounced e-mails and automatically remove them from the subscriber’s list.<\/p>\n
