We generally have lots of content to present but can not load all of it at once as it may take too long.

I always loved the dZone’s Ajax content loading while scrolling feature and created a similar one using jQuery.

I’m pleased to share with WebResourcesDepot readers (Check the demo - scroll down to see new content in the demo)

This Ajax auto content loading can very be handy in almost every project. Don’t forget to bookmark it (del.icio.us link).

Download package includes a working demo coded with ASP with a test MySQL database. ASP code is just a simple query so you can switch it with a one you like easily.
