Answer 1

Yes, that what you have to do if you don't want to refresh the page. Although, you could find other framework rather than jQuery. That framework still use ajax technology inside.

Answer 2

AJAX isn't a library - it's built into Javascript, and is available on pretty much all browsers from even IE6 onwards.
