client-side cache vs server-side cache vs ajax vs asp.net callback

Hi,

I just went into a debate with my colleague regarding these technologies. I
think they are not the same:

At a high-level...
Client-side caching is to do with temporary internet file and the 'check for
newer verions of stored pages' setting in Internet Explorer
Server-side caching is to do with asp.net and IIS. It instructs how IIS
should fetch pages (e.g. depend on parameters, by time)
ajax, which I am still learning, is a combination of technologies e.g.
dhtml, xml, javascript. It only do a 'http get', using javascript, of the
relevant part of a page.
callbacks also uses javascript but 'http post' the whole page, similar to
the traditional "post back"?

Could someone please verified...

Thanks

all ur assessments are pretty accurate. There are many different
implementations of ajax though. AJAX.NET does what you describe, while
MagicAjax and Atlas sorta sit between a pull page submit and a quick hit...
