Alex MacCaw - Asynchronous UIs - the future of web user interfaces

It's an interesting time to be working on the frontend now. We have new technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, Canvas and WebGL; all of which greatly increase the possibilities for web application development. The world is our oyster! However, there's also another trend I've noticed. http://alexmaccaw.co.uk/posts/async_ui

Developing Revolutionary Web Applications using Comet and Ajax Push

http://www.slideshare.net/doris1/developing-revolutionary-web-applications-using-comet-and-ajax-push Join the asynchronous web revolution! Because Ajax-based applications are almost becoming the de facto technology for designing web-based applications, it is more and more important that such applicati Join the asynchronous web revolution!
Introduction Before we get started, i’ll tell you a little bit more about data transfer solutions… The title AJAX referred to XML, although at present, for asynchronous data transmission, it is used less frequently (in pure form, at least). In addition to XML, there are HTML (a technology called AJAH), HTML + HTTP (AHAH) and Javascript + JSON (AJAJ).

Create an In-Place Editing System | Nettuts+

Making users click through multiple pages just to edit a field is so 1999. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to create an in-place editing system as found on popular sites, such as Flickr. A word from the Author With all the buzz around Web 2.0, ease of use is now much more important than ever. http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/create-an-in-place-editing-system/
This project is an interesting example of an application built using the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) . Kelly and Miguel spent a Sunday afternoon prior to their tutorial at EclipseCon 2007 developing an instant messenger web application. The source for Chattr is available in the Downloads section , and you can either get the 'complete' app version, or a version that is 'working.'

The DOM plays into Ajax in a number of ways. How you use the DOM depends a good deal on how you handle the content returned from the server. You can treat the con­tent as simple text using the responseText property of the server response, or you can treat it as XML using responseXML . Assuming the content you pull back from the server is an (X)HTML snippet and you’ve gotten it as responseText , you could drop that content into a particular spot on the page using innerHTML . On the flip side, if the content you pull back is XML and you’ve gotten it as responseXML , you can traverse its DOM , cherry-picking or performing functions on the elements, attributes, and text nodes. This probably sounds very confusing, but it is pretty easy once we go over a few simple examples. http://www.alistapart.com/articles/gettingstartedwithajax
