About this Presentation

Ajax applications have unique architectural challenges and opportunities. This presentation will show you how to take advantage of the Ajax's strengths, and work around its quirks.

Topics covered will include:

Selecting an Ajax toolkit
Dealing with browser differences
Handling the “Back” button
Degrading gracefully
Marshalling data
Managing XML
Minimizing roundtrips–or not!
When Ajax isn't enough
Packaging and deployment

Prior exposure to Ajax and JavaScript is very useful, but not required.
