- Synopsis
- In the past year, developers worldwide have embraced the Ajax combination of technologies (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) as a way to build web applications that deliver users a more desktop-like experience. Now, in an effort to simplify Ajax development, especially for ASP.NET 2.0 developers, Microsoft has introduced a new framework, code-named "Atlas", that is loaded with tools, templates and controls that simplify the creation of Ajax savvy web pages that are richer, more interactive, and more personalized, as well as standards-based and able to run cross browser. Programming Atlas Rough Cuts provides experienced web developers with an exciting hands-on tour of "Atlas," beginning with an introduction to the Ajax technologies behind it all, from JavaScript, and XMLHttpRequest to JSON. Author Christian Wenz then unpacks the "Atlas" framework and shows how to use it to create Ajax-enabled web sites. Dozens of examples demonstrate how to use core "Atlas" controls and extenders, how to bind and display data, and how to draw on the power of Microsoft Web 2.0 services such as Microsoft Virtual Earth and Windows Live. The book will be especially useful to web developers who are new to Ajax, regardless of their current platform, and its combination of well-explained examples and reference material, concisely presented, makes the concepts of this new framework accessible to developers of various technical levels. Recently updated for the April CTP release of "Atlas", the book now includes a new chapter on the shared source "Atlas" Control Toolkit!
