AJAX your Struts
Ajax has been top of the news for quite some time but ask Java developers if they have tried out Ajax and the answer would probably be “Hmmmm…..No!”. The most common reason being that that they aren’t sure where to begin.
The article Sprinkle Some AJAX Magic in Your Struts Web Application takes a quick look at what is AJAX and then goes on to show how you can implement AJAX in your Struts applications. A good place to begin your Ajax adventure. You could even just pick up the Sample Code and see if it makes sense.
Once you are famiiar with Ajax, have a look at the Ajax + Java toolbox. Robert Palmer takes a quick look at AJAXTags, Taconite, Direct Web Remoting (DWR) and Moo.fx.
Happy Ajaxing!
