Â BTW, guys. Me and obsidian are working on a project and are thinking of using AJAX. We have already used some stuff, but one of the things we are thinking of doing is a sort of shopping system (it isnt an e-commerce website, btw) with ajax that will fade out products you cannot afford and add to your cart, update your money, all without reloading the page.

Gast Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 This is just something that I am wondering about in AJAX. I know how to change stuff dynamically using AJAX without reloading the page, but I understand that you can get stuff to change dynamically automatically without you having to do anything. Â As far as I know you have to trigger on one of the javascript event handlers (onload, onclick, onmouseover, etc.) So how can this happen? Any ideas?

neylitalo Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I'm just guessing here, but wouldn't you be able to put some kind of timer going, and when it hits a certain time, have it do something? I don't really see the advantage of being able to do something with no interaction from the user, unless it's time-based.

Â I and many others will disagree with that. Â It's not that it's a new technology or really even a new language, it's the ability to streamline applications, enhance server processing, and tie together many of our favorite languages to enhance not just our website, but our web applications. Â I've seen a few very popular applications already implementing it, and we plan to do the same with Hybodus. It's going to be interesting.

steelmanronald06 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Exactly. What I like about it is the ability to refresh things on a page without having to reload the entire page...such as if you pick a state it lists all of the cities in that state without refreshing the page. It is the next big boom! Even Microsoft and phpBB are using it...and if you know if they are using it then it is a big thing since they are the last to pick up everything in hopes to follow the most popular fav instead of paving the way for it...that was mean. Didn't mean to make fun of phpBB or Microsoft....wait yes i did.

zq29 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I like the AjaxFreaks design, I assume that the logo will be altered though?

steelmanronald06 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Yes it should be changed soon enough. I have been talking to Ryan about it, the designer of the logo, and he is working on making a trademark logo for AJAX. Currenly one does not exist to our knowledge, so we hope to set the standard. Such as php having the <? and Linux having the tiny peguine thingy. We will update you on what we find out on that part.

executive Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Well obviously AJAX is great, speeds things up and is very cool to play with, and make great web applications that run smoother, however one of the reasons i say it won't be "the next boom" is because its javascript. SE don't read Javascript, so you can't make a whole site out of AJAX. Only application type things can be made AJAX, such as a domain name look up that i made a while back. Â I mean its great everyone knows that, however, don't get so carried away with it... Seriously, you can barely make about 3 different ways of an AJAX engine. The reason i say this is because it isn't a very broad subject to be called a "next boom", something like PHP is!
