CIS 144 Phase 8 Ajax

Create a web page with the heading CNIT 133 Homework 8 - Ajax Applications.

Recreate the 'gethint' Ajax example from W3Schools http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_ajax_php.asp

Use the php file containing the hints and expand them to include several more names as hints (at least 10 more names).

Note: It is recommended to upload your php script (file) to the web hosting server, into the same directory where your HTML file resides. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE GITHUB AS A WEB SERVER AS PHP WILL NOT BE PROCESSED THERE! Be sure to give your php directory read and execute permissions (chmod 700 or 755 php) - it will be fine if you upload the php file to the public_html folder of your Descartes account.

Right below that part, create another section for your page that will be based on some research you will do. You will write a couple of paragraphs presenting a REST API that you could use in an application and the URL to the documentation of that API - it cannot be any Github API, neither BART as both of those two have been mentioned in the lecture!

You can start your research here - https://apilist.fun/

Your paragraph or table should contain at least the following information:

• What type of response file you get (JSON, XML, etc.)?
• Do you need any type of key to access and use the API?
• You need also to provide a link to any type of documentation that would help the developer use the API.

Extra Credit

You will create a page making the REST API you chose to work - the points of extra credit will only be given if the REST API is really working according to your explanation and what is provided by the documentation of the API!
