Ajax is very fundamental tool for any RIA. Django makes it rather easy to interact with Ajax, specially if you’re using some of the common JavaScript frameworks like jQuery, Dojotoolkit or Ext-JS.
The AJAX Control Toolkit is an incredibly popular set of controls that enable you to easily add JavaScript functionality to an ASP.NET application. The AJAX Control Toolkit has consistently been one of the top three most popular downloads from CodePlex since the birth of CodePlex (see http://www.CodePlex.com).
Some of you may not be aware of another project being worked on by members of my team callled the AJAX Toolkit Framework (ATF). ATF provides an AJAX Tooling Environment in Eclipse that includes things like a DOM Inspector, an HTTP request monitor, JavaScript debugger, JavaScript editor with validation and code completion, and more.
I can never seem to remember the basics of how to use the AJAX Toolkit AutoCompleteExtender. It isn’t that it is all that difficult, it is just that there are things that I forget. The sample page is actually quite useful.
Wow…long time no blogging. As always, busy busy busy… Di tengah kesibukan mengerjakan proyek dadakan di negeri tetangga dengan deadline yang super cepat, nyempatin diri lihat-lihat AJAX Control Toolkit (ACT), siapa tahu ada control baru. Ternyata memang ada. The latest release is Sept 30, 2009. There are two new controls:
Tooltip let’s you create mouse over tooltips to your content and allows you to show additional information.It using Gzip loader technique that will deliver CSS and Javascript files more faster and also with minimun HTTP request.Need MooTools,PHP and a few js.The main code is from YOOtooltip.
This is a versatile Ajax Tabs Content script that lets you display content pulled from external files inside a DIV and organized via CSS tabs. A fully unobtrusive, CSS and HTML based script, it supports practical features such as persistence of the active tab (ie: when page is reloaded), an "IFRAME" mode, a "slideshow" mode, ability to expand/contract arbitrary DIVs on the page at the same time, nested tabs, and much more.
My first task at Mersoft was to develop an ajax-rich web interface with a Java backend. I was told that it must be tabbed and was shown the existing interface which pretty much was just a file upload.
In a previous post I showed examples of how CSS and JavaScript code could be used to freeze the header row of a GridView control and add scrolling capabilities for Internet Explorer and Firefox. Here’s an example of a GridView with a frozen header:
To the ranks of Ext JS, jQuery UI, Dijit, and others comes JxLib, a new browser-based UI toolkit built on top of MooTools. Jason Fournier from the team passed the announcement to us:
Ajaxlines is a project focused on providing its audience with a database of most of Ajax related articles, resources, tutorials and services from around the world.
Its purpose is to showcase the power of Ajax and to act as a portal to the Ajax development community.
