Book Description
Pro Ajax and the .NET 2.0 Platform gets high marks from me because it is concise, informative and easy to follow. After reading the first three chapters I had a clear understanding of what Ajax really is.
There are a few class libraries recently distributed that open the Ajax door to the .NET Framework 2.0. This book examines how the Ajax technology and the .NET Framework can work in tandem. It thoroughly covers the XMLHTTPRequest processes and the .NET 2.0 class libraries, and shows you how to turn theory into practice and concepts into code, with samples that duplicate many new web technologies. With the knowledge you gain from this book, youll be ready to put this asynchronous technology to work.
Thanks to the folks at Google, Ajax technology has become a force to be reckoned with. It is a technology that is here and now, just waiting for you to implement it with full impact. Google Maps, Google Suggest, and Flickr.com are just a few of the sites out there that have moved Ajax into the mainstream. More shall be revealed as the technology eases its way into coding. The book will also prepare you for upcoming work changes with the release of “Atlas.” Download Now »

Book Description
Ajax can bring many advantages to an existing web application without forcing you to redo the whole thing. This book explains how you can add Ajax to enhance, rather than replace, the way your application works. For instance, if you have a traditional web application based on submitting a form to update a table, you can enhance it by adding the capability to update the table with changes to the form fields, without actually having to submit the form. That’s just one example.
Adding Ajax is for those of you more interested in extending existing applications than in creating Rich Internet Applications (RIA). You already know the “business-side” of applications-web forms, server-side driven pages, and static content-and now you want to make your web pages livelier, more fun, and much more interactive. This book:
- Provides an overview of Ajax technologies, and the importance of developing a strategy for changing your site before you sit down to code
- Explains the heart and soul of Ajax: how to work with the XMLHttpRequest object
- Introduces and demonstrates several important Ajax libraries, including Prototype, script.aculo.us, rico, Mochikit
- Explores the interactive element that is Ajax, including how to work with events and event handlers that work across browsers
- Introduces the concept of web page as space, and covers three popular approaches to managing web space Download Now »
