Are there any best practices for optimizing table usage in PHP to avoid page reloads?

When working with tables in PHP, one way to optimize usage and avoid page reloads is to use AJAX to dynamically update the table content without refreshing the entire page. By sending asynchronous requests to the server, you can fetch new data and update the table without disrupting the user experience.

// PHP code snippet to demonstrate updating table content using AJAX

// Check if AJAX request is being made
if(isset($_GET['action']) && $_GET['action'] == 'update_table'){
    // Fetch new data for the table
    $new_data = fetchDataFromDatabase();

    // Output the updated table content
    echo '<table>';
    foreach($new_data as $row){
        echo '<tr>';
        foreach($row as $cell){
            echo '<td>'.$cell.'</td>';
        }
        echo '</tr>';
    }
    echo '</table>';
}

// Function to fetch data from database
function fetchDataFromDatabase(){
    // Database connection and query to fetch data
    // Return the fetched data as an array
}
