Excellent idea! You’d still only need to write the Ajax code once, but you’d simply change the event that triggers it based on viewport size:

On a large viewport, trigger the Ajax request once the page has loaded.

On a smaller viewport, trigger the Ajax request when the link is clicked.

I like it!
