Ajax (Asynchronous JavaScript + CSS + DOM +
XMLHttpRequest) combines existing Web technologies into a single
platform that allows developers to create rich Web
applications that are very fast and look more
like desktop applications.
Major Web players are already
using Ajax to create a new generation of
Web applications, including Google (Ajax is behind Google
Maps, Google Suggest, and Google Groups), Amazon, and
Yahoo!
This book shows Web developers step by
step how to get up and running with
the Ajax development platform and application architecture.
Topics
covered include creating JavaScript effects, styling with CSS,
using the XMLHttpRequest object to fetch data, working
with Ajax design patterns, harnessing Ajax toolkits, and
server-side scripting with PHP and JSP.
The companion
CD-ROM includes the code from the book, XML
tools, and usable Ajax applications.
