Ajax on Java shows you how to make your Java web applications more responsive and dynamic by incorporating new Ajaxian features, including suggestion lists, drag-and-drop, and more. This book demonstrates many different ways of incorporating Ajax, from building JavaScript into your applications “by hand” to using the new Google Web Toolkit (GWT). And, of course, you’ll learn how to use Ajax in your Struts, JSP, and JSF applications.
Ajax on Java starts with an introduction to Ajax, teaching you how to write some basic applications that use client-side JavaScript to request information from a Java servlet and display it without doing a full page reload. It also presents several strategies for communicating between the client and the server, including sending raw data and using XML or JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) for sending more complex collections of data.
The book then branches out into different approaches for incorporating Ajax.These approaches include:
The Prototype and script.aculo.us JavaScript libraries, the Dojo and Rico libraries, and DWR
Using Ajax to build entry forms and suggestion fields
Creating an Ajax tag library and third-party tag libraries
Integrating Ajax into JavaServer Pages (JSP) applications
Using Ajax with Struts
Integrating Ajax into JavaServer Faces (JSF) applications
Using Google’s GWT, which offers a pure Java approach to developing web applications: your client-side components are written in Java and compiled into HTML and JavaScript
Ajax on Java teaches you how to build applications that are more interactive, dynamic, exciting, and enjoyable for your users. If you’re a Java developer and haven’t tried Ajax but would like to get started, this book is essential. Your users will be grateful.
