Adding Ajax to Admin Tools

Here is an example of the newly added Ajax for loading in configuration options for each Announcement. This is much better than the previous method, which used display:none; to hide and show content. This was a problem because all code for each Announcement was loaded, but only shown when needed. This put a strain on the server, and added a wait time for users.


Also in this update is a visual change when the user updates attributes. Name, Contact, Email, and Status all change on the fly, and can be seen changing as you type.
