About this book:
Ajax has taken the web development community by storm, giving web developers
the potential to create rich user-centered Internet applications. But
Ajax also adds a new level of complexity and sophistication to those applications.
Ajax in Practice tackles Ajax head-on, providing countless hands-on techniques
and tons of reusable code to address the specific issues developers face
when building Ajax-driven solutions.
After a brief overview of Ajax, this book takes the reader through dozens of
working examples, presented in an easy-to-use solution-focused format. Readers
will learn how to implement rich user interfaces, including hands-on strategies
for drag and drop, effective navigation, event handling, form entry
validation, state management, choosing Ajax libraries, interfacing to open web
APIs, and more!
Unlike the traditional cookbook approach, Ajax in Practice provides a thorough
discussion of each technique presented and shows how the individual
components can be connected to create powerful solutions. A fun “mashup”
chapter concludes the book. Throughout the book, the examples chosen are
interesting, entertaining, and above all, practical.
