AJAX 03/22/2005 04:58 PM

I am playing with AJAX myself but I see many problems with AJAX as the next generation DHTML application platform.  AJAX applications are more expensive to build, test, and update than traditional DHTML applications.

Frankly, I am not even sure whether current crop of popular web browsers can support AJAX because they weren't built with the expectation that a signle web page might stay up for as long as GUI applications.  When even small carefully written DHTML apps can cause enough browser resource leaks to require frequent browser restarts, I think good stable AJAX applications will be rarer than the picture recent hype paints.

And by the time engineers discover the cost of AJAX first-hand, .NET-based ClickOnce applications will look much more attractive than AJAX-based applications can ever be.

Now just call it "AJAX" 03/14/2005 05:25 PM
Last year we wrote about how some applications -- notably Google Mail and Suggest -- were taking advantage of Javascript plus XML-over-HTTP for richer interfaces. Now Jesse James Garrett of Adaptive Path has written a nice summary and (perhaps more imporantly) come up with a new name for the approach: "AJAX." Some CMS vendors are beginning to use AJAX methodologies, although from what we have seen mostly in a tentative way (if you're a vendor using AJAX, do tell where and how. Asynchronous communication with the server has tremendous potential to make heretofore very linear authoring and workflow procedures in a CMS much more fluid and therefore more, well, lifelike......

Why the term Ajax is useful

Why the term Ajax is useful 04/18/2005 09:55 PM

Software design patterns are useful mainly because they provide a shared vocabulary: rather than discussing the intimate details of a three layered application architecture, we say "MVC". Rather than describing an object that tracks your progress while looping over a collection, we say "Iterator".

The same is true for Ajax. While the techniques it describes have been around for years, grouping them under a single term is extremely valuable for raising the level of discussion about them. No longer will we have to explain XMLHttpRequest / hidden iframes / crazy cookie tricks in depth when discussing sites which pull fresh information from the server without reloading the whole page. Instead, we can say "Ajax" and move on to more interesting things.

Matthew Haughey says it's all about marketing. I disagree; it's about smarter and more effective conversations.

AJAX in Flash

AJAX in Flash 03/30/2005 09:01 PM

As I pointed out in my AJAX post, I think difficulties of writing AJAX make it a poor web application platform, particularly since there are easier alternatives.

Flash, for example, is a better platform for some applications than AJAX because it offers similar capabilities (i.e. XMLHttpRequest in DHTML) and comparable, if not better, level of availability along with much better graphics capability.  Flash tool developers such as Lazlo and Xamlon makes it easy to develop interactive web application.  Just take a look at this Google Maps like demo built over a weekend using Xamlon's upcoming tool.

Note that AJAX in Flash is inappropriate for web applications that manipulate DHTML DOM extensively and has a number of issues that makes it prohibitively expensive for uses beyond demos and small tightly-focused applications.  For example, you can't built PhotoShop with it without abandoning usability.

Beyond Flash, .NET looms with superior functionalities and flexibilities.  The only thing it lacks is the availability in several sense.

I just read an interesting post from Bjoern on the impact that AJAX can have on your existing applications. As I understand things, Bjoern makes two major points: That you can’t rely on AJAX being a workable solution because XMLHttpRequest requires ActiveX on Windows And that AJAX will force you to completely revise your development strategy because its [...]

Ajax: A New Approach to Web Applications by Jesse James Garrett
http://www.adaptivepath.com/publications/essays/archives/000385.p hp

Ajax isn’t a technology. It’s really several technologies, each flourishing in its own right, coming together in powerful new ways. Ajax incorporates: 1) standards-based presentation using XHTML and CSS; 2) dynamic display and interaction using the Document Object Model; 3) data interchange and manipulation using XML and XSLT; 4) asynchronous data retrieval using XMLHttpRequest; and 5) JavaScript binding everything together. This essay by Jesse Garrett explains Ajax and what the future holds for this exciting application. This has been added to eCommerce Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.
