jasper182 Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Hello, I just completed a basic prototype of an Ajax powered page that I would like to continue working on. However, I have just been using hardcoded JavaScript for all my Ajax calls, and I was wondering what you all thought about the different frameworks out there right now. Is there a benefit to switching to something like Google's or Yahoo's framework, or is it better just to hardcode everything myself like I have been doing? I don't know anyone who has used these frameworks, so any insight you can give me on them would be appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfmason Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 I personally don't see the point, in most cases, for an ajax frame work. Most of the time you are only going to have a few reusable functions if you do it right. Now there are cases that I would recommend a frame work but those are large applications that need to be turned out quickly. So basically in most cases I would not recommend an ajax frame work.

Nameless12 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 prototype and scriptaculous are great frameworks. Scriptaculous requires prototype, prototype is just a javascript framework. And yes it is prototype that provides the Ajax, scriptaculous just provides very cool effects. Prototype is worth using even if you dont use it for ajax.
