Reusable components and patterns for
Ajax-driven applications

Ajax is one of the latest and greatest ways
to improve users' online experience and create new and
innovative web functionality. By allowing specific parts of a web
page to be displayed without refreshing the entire page, Ajax
significantly enhances the experience of web applications. It also
lets web developers create intuitive and innovative interaction
processes.

Ajax for Web Application Developers provides
the in-depth working knowledge of Ajax that web developers need to
take their web applications to the next level. The book shows how
to create an Ajax-driven web application from an object-oriented
perspective, and it includes discussion of several useful Ajax
design patterns.

This detailed guide covers the creation of
connections to a MySQL database with PHP 5 via a custom Ajax engine
and shows how to gracefully format the response with CSS,
JavaScript, and XHTML while keeping the data tightly secure. It
also covers the use of four custom Ajax-enabled components in an
application and how to create each of them from scratch.

The final section of the book combines the
individual code examples and techniques from earlier chapters of
the book into one larger, Ajax-driven applicationan internal
web mail application that can be used in any user-based
application, such as a community-based web application. Readers
will learn not only how to create and use their own reusable Ajax
components in this application

but also how to connect their components to
any future Ajax applications that they might build.
