I have a button, the event would be onclick and then the javascript function will send to server the request(for example a rating button on an item), the page should not be redirected, basically I want the event to happen in the background. How to do that? Please give me some idea or code.

Reset to default 4Wele to the marvelous world of AJAX. One of the issues with ajax calls is that different browsers have different implementations of ajax. It's better if you can use a javascript library that abstracts these differences. I'd suggest you to pick up jQuery. You can make ajax calls in jQuery using $.get(), $.post() or $.ajax()
Check out jQuery.ajax.
you can use jquery ajax to achieve your goal. Its quite simple :)
