Microsoft Inter Frame Messaging XMLHttp API
Welcome to the Microsoft Inter Frame Messaging (IFM) XMLHttp API. The IFM XMLHttp API provides developers with a JavaScript API for building applications that exchange data with Windows Live Application Based Storage.
The IFM XMLHttp API offers a development experience similar to AJAX. Using IFM XMLHttp, you can access data in Application Based Storage directly from the client, without relying on server-side technologies. IFM XMLHttp can reduce the network load on a Web site by offloading some processing to the client and improve performance for the client by reducing trips to the server.
