ajax
Ajax, or Asyncronous Javascript and XML is one of more exciting advances in the way developers can present, manipulate, and update the presentation of web applications. Now User Interfaces on traditionally thin client applications, can mimick the interaction users have come to expect from thick clients (locally installed applications).
However, like a lot of things, there is a fine line between adding javascript effects that enhance a site or a particular function, and having Ajax/Javascript just for eye candy.
At bedlam we always try to strike a balance, and ensure we use Ajax only in cases where it makes sense and where it adds value to the process. Remember the early days of javascript where developers would load down a form with an endless array of javascript pop-ups or annoying effects that would follow your mouse cursor? We do too.
Javascript Libraries we support
Don't see your favorite library or framework listed here? Worry not, more than likely we can support that one too. The following are the ones we support and personally like, but underneath every Ajax library is javascript, so working with new ones is not as painful as you would imagine.
