Ajax.framework requires only a very small amount of integration with ERExtensions, the part of Project Wonder that people get nervous about. If you want to do stateless direct actions with Ajax, it's pretty easy and works basically like any web framework (pass the variables around as query parameters). If you want component actions, I highlight HIGHLY recommend that you use Ajax.framework in Wonder -- you really don't want to try to reinvent that wheel, because it's a big pain in the butt wheel to reinvent, and we spent a lot of time in Wonder to make this very painless to include.

Hi Jean Pierre,

I looked into Project Wonder at one time, but we can't use it in- house for our work, so I've mainly stayed away from it for that reason. Also, what I'm really looking for are some simple examples that would show me how to do everything from scratch (I.e., no Javascript libraries or WO libraries) so that I can get a good feel for how these technologies work together before using a library for my day-to-day work.

You wouldn't happen to know of any good resources that would fit that bill would you?

Thanks for the suggestion though, I really appreciate it.

Project Wonder provides a very good integration of AJAX (scriptaculous + prototype) with WebObjects.

To get started, see what is available:

http://www.mdimension.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/AjaxExample.woa

Then download source code for the Ajax examples from mdimension site and take a look at how the examples are implemented.

That should get you started.

Hey all,

I was wondering if anyone knew of any tutorials or simple examples of
how to use AJAX with WebObjects. From what I've read so far, it looks
like direct actions will be used if you want to do any type of AJAX
work, but I've also seen mention of project Wonder using component
actions to implement its AJAX components and I would love it if I
could find a simple tutorial that showed how to do this.


Thanks for any input you can give me.

Cheers,

Christoper
