But ajax.Request is used to send values to a Server Script and also receives a reply (if required). It really depends on what you want to do.

What can be done with ajaxUpdater which can't be done with ajaxRequest? I've just used your ajaxRequest tutorial to create my first bit of ajax, thanks a lot for the help, very very handy. I built the ajax part in less than 20 min... without that tutorial, it would have probably taken me several hours. Sorry, but I don’t really get the difference between ajaxUpdater and ajaxRequest.
